A Pakistani court orders that former prime minister Imran Khan and his wife, Bushra Bibi, will not be kept in solitary confinement and will be allowed timely meetings. Both are currently detained at Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi, where they are serving lengthy prison sentences linked to corruption and related cases.
The ruling is reported as a significant procedural relief for the couple while they remain incarcerated. While coverage focuses on the immediate jail conditions—specifically the removal of solitary confinement and the schedule for meetings—the underlying court context remains consistent across reports: their continued imprisonment follows convictions in multiple cases, and the latest decision concerns treatment and access rather than ending the sentences.
Different outlets emphasize different aspects of the decision, such as how it affects day-to-day custody and visit arrangements. However, all accounts describe the court’s intervention as addressing confinement practices and ensuring that contact is facilitated according to the court’s directions.
