Imprisoned former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan wrote last week that he is at risk of being murdered by the government. Now he says that he has been denied health care.
“The military establishment has done all they could against me. All that is left for them is to now murder me,” he wrote in The Telegraph. “I have stated publicly that if anything happens to me or my wife, Gen Asim Munir will be responsible.”
Reporters now say that he has been denied blood tests and care from his doctor even though a court ordered that he should receive both. His wife, Bushra Bibi, is under house arrest and she claims that she was poisoned with toilet cleaner in February. She too has reportedly been denied medical care.
Former PM Khan was arrested last year and elections in Pakistan suspiciously subverted his party from winning power in order to free him.
