Bushra Bibi Jail Conditions — The sister of former First Lady Bushra Bibi has alleged that she is being kept in a rat-infested, unhygienic cell, raising serious concerns about her health and safety.
The sister of Bushra Bibi, wife of former Prime Minister Imran Khan, has alleged that the former First Lady is being held in deplorable conditions inside Adiala Jail. She claimed that Bushra Bibi has been placed in a rat-infested cell with poor sanitation and inadequate facilities, describing the situation as both inhumane and dangerous for her health.
Family members expressed outrage over the alleged treatment, urging the authorities to take immediate action to improve her living conditions. They argue that Bushra Bibi deserves at least the basic rights and facilities guaranteed to prisoners under the law.
The complaint has renewed debate over the treatment of political figures in custody, with supporters of Imran Khan’s party calling the conditions a deliberate attempt to pressure and intimidate. Rights groups and legal experts have also emphasized the importance of ensuring humane prison standards, regardless of political circumstances.
Officials at Adiala Jail have not yet issued a detailed response to the allegations, but the issue is likely to add further strain to the already tense political climate surrounding the former prime minister and his family.
In response, Judge Nasir Javed Rana immediately called the jailer to the stand, directing that the sanitation team promptly address the hazardous infestation. The jailer reassured the court that the issue would be resolved urgently, to which Bushra Bibi responded with visible relief.The Express Tribune
