Breaking News: Imran Khan, Pakistan’s former prime minister, has been moved from prison to a hospital, a win for his supporters in their prolonged legal battle over his medical treatment. nyti.ms/45IxYQX

While it is a relief that Imran Khan sahib will finally receive the urgent medical attention he has needed all along , care without which he may not have survived, it is deeply painful to see how this fascist regime has broken the health of a man who was once an elite athlete.
This should be a moment of grief for the entire Pakistan: a national hero and a philanthropist, whose all vital organs, according to jail provided medical reports, are no longer functioning as they should.
This is the direct result of solitary confinement and the harsh conditions he has endured. Every institution bears responsibility for this, and so, above all, do his own people (all of us), who failed to build enough pressure in time to secure his release from isolation.
MY HEART BLEEDS THINKING ABOUT HIS SUFFERING!
And a SIMILAR SUFFERING THAT HIS WIFE IS GOING THROUGH!

Replying to @IndiaToday @AneeshaMathur
This is great initiative from the former captains of their respective teams appealing Pakistan Government on the fair and humanitarian treatment of Pakistan’s former captain @ImranKhanPTI !!
Please note that there is no Pakistani former captain in the list which again proves how ruthless Pakistan as a nation is!! Obviously they are afraid coming out in support of this because they might end up in the same situation as their former captain.🤨😌

Imran Khan continues to suffer ongoing hardship in a Pakistani jail - my prayers are with him. Thank God his spiritual strength is unbroken. Once, they sang his praise, he was their darling, East and West. When he demonstrated that he could not be corrupted they silenced him. This unlawful incarceration needs to come to an end.

To the global cricketing community, legends, current stars, commentators, administrators, and fans worldwide:
@ImranKhanPTI , the man who captained Pakistan to the 1992 World Cup glory, revolutionized the game with his all-round brilliance, leadership, and vision both on and off the field, is now fighting for his sight and dignity in Adiala Jail. Recent court reports confirm he has lost nearly **85% of vision in his right eye**left with only about 15% due to untreated central retinal vein occlusion. Jail authorities allegedly ignored his repeated complaints of blurred vision for months, leading to irreversible damage from a blood clot. At 73, after over **900 days in solitary confinement**, he faces ongoing medical neglect, restricted family access, and inhumane conditions despite international human rights standards demanding proper care for every prisoner.
This is not politics alone; this is a fellow cricketer, a World Cup-winning captain, an icon who inspired generations of players across borders, being subjected to what amounts to cruel and degrading treatment. Cricket has always stood for fair play, resilience, and speaking truth to power whether on the pitch or beyond.
It is your **moral duty** to speak up now. The silence from the cricketing world is deafening when one of its greatest legends is losing his eyesight in prison due to deliberate neglect. Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Shoaib Akhtar, and others showed solidarity in the past now is the time for the entire fraternity to unite louder than ever.
- Demand immediate, independent medical treatment and specialist care for Imran Khan.
- Call for an end to solitary confinement and restoration of basic rights.
- Urge global bodies like the ICC, players' associations, and media to raise their voices against this injustice.
The time is **NOW** before more harm is done. Imran Khan once saw the future of cricket and led Pakistan to victory against all odds. Today, the cricketing world must see his suffering and act. History will remember who stood up for a brother in the game when it mattered most.
Speak out. Use your platforms. Show the world that cricket's values extend beyond boundaries.
