Former Indian cricket captain and coach Ravi Shastri criticises Pakistan’s reported treatment of jailed former Pakistan captain Imran Khan, calling it “inhumane.” His comments come amid public concerns about Khan’s health, including his vision.
Shastri says Khan deserves better treatment and frames the issue as one of basic treatment of a human being. He also highlights Khan’s stature and past leadership, praising his role in Pakistan’s 1992 World Cup-winning campaign. Both outlets report Shastri’s view that Khan is a widely recognised global figure, and that the reported conditions warrant attention.
While the reports focus on Shastri’s remarks rather than offering new details about the specific circumstances in custody, they align on the core points: Shastri’s criticism, his characterisation of the treatment, and the context of health-related concerns.
