Pti Protests Outside Supreme Court Over Imran Khan'S Health Issues

Protests outside the Supreme Court intensified on February 23, 2026, as PTI lawmakers, led by Interim PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Akhan and Senate Opposition Leader Raja Nasir Abbas, demanded the transfer of jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan to a private hospital for medical treatment. This demand gained urgency following a medical report indicating that Khan's right-eye vision has dropped to 15%. In a significant development, Khan underwent a follow-up eye treatment at Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) on February 24, which the PTI criticized for its lack of transparency, stating, 'The situation demands transparency, not secrecy.' The government, however, defended its actions, asserting that all procedures were conducted legally and transparently, with Parliamentary Affairs Minister Tariq Fazal Chaudhry stating, 'Even in this matter, all arrangements were transparent and according to the regulations.'
