Protests outside the Supreme Court escalated on February 23, 2026, as PTI lawmakers, led by Interim PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Akhan, demanded the transfer of jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan to a private hospital for urgent medical treatment. This demand intensified following a police complaint filed by Khan's sister, Uzma Khan, accusing jail officials of deliberate neglect that resulted in an 'irreversible' 85% vision loss in his right eye. The complaint alleges that Khan, 73, was kept in solitary confinement to conceal the deterioration of his health, with inadequate medical care provided during this period. Uzma stated, "Despite his advanced age and repeated complaints, his medical concerns were willfully ignored," highlighting the severity of the situation.
