Pakistan's jailed former PM Imran Khan loses 85% of sight in right eye, lawyer says
Imran Khan, the former Prime Minister of Pakistan, is reportedly experiencing severe vision loss, with 85% impairment in his right eye, according to his legal representative. Khan is currently serving a 14-year prison sentence following corruption charges, which he and his supporters argue are politically driven. The deterioration of his eyesight has raised concerns about his health and treatment while incarcerated. Khan's imprisonment has sparked significant political unrest in Pakistan, with many of his followers viewing the legal actions against him as part of a broader strategy to suppress dissent and eliminate political rivals. As the situation unfolds, calls for his release and better medical care in prison have intensified, highlighting the ongoing tensions within Pakistan's political landscape.
