ISLAMABAD: Adiala Jail authorities rubbished claims made by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf about ill-treatment meted out to Imran Khan, while revealing exquisite menu of meals provided to party founder in prison.

Menu was revealed after PTI Chairman Gohar Ali Khan mentioned about alleged mistreatment towards deposed Imran Khan in jail following former’s meeting with latter in Adiala-where Imran remains incarcerated for over year now.  Addressing journalists in Islamabad, PTI Chairman said it was for first time after his imprisonment at Adiala Jail that Imran mentioned about conditions of his prison cell. He said electricity supply to his cell was suspended for five days, while he had not been provided newspaper or TV facility for last fortnight and he was allowed to spend just two and half hours out of his cell in day. Condemning “Ill-treatment”, Gohar said authorities should look after rights of former Prime Minister and provide him facilities he was entitled to in his “Solitary confinement”. He asserted that keeping him in small cell was serious violation of constitutional and legal rights. PTI leader said party founder was not even aware of arrest of his sisters and he rued over event.

However, Imran said he and his entire family would render sacrifice for sake of people’s struggle, he said, requesting entire nation to remain peaceful. Contrary to his expectations, Gohar said they were given 45 minutes to meet Imran. Nevertheless, he said former PM was fine. “We were expecting to be given enough time to talk, but were given only 45 minutes. We will try to meet him again on Monday,” he maintained.
