Speaking to reporters, she alleged that he was being subjected to “constant mental pressure.”

Tuesday was designated as the weekly day for lawyers and family meetings.

Jail authorities had granted Uzma Khanum permission after several weeks during which family members were not allowed to see him, fuelling concerns about his well-being.

Uzma Khanum said Imran Khan was “fine and healthy,” but added that the restrictions on visits remained severe.

Earlier, his other sister, Aleema Khan, said that only one relative, Noreen Khan, was allowed to meet him on November 4, with no visits permitted afterwards.

Heavy police deployment remained in place around Adiala Jail as a precaution against possible protests.

PTI had announced demonstrations outside the Islamabad High Court (IHC) and Adiala Jail on Tuesday over the lack of access to the party chief, despite a ban on public gatherings in the twin cities.

Section 144 has been enforced in Islamabad since November 18 for two months, while Rawalpindi authorities have imposed a three-day restriction.

The order bars gatherings of five or more people, rallies, and protests.

The district magistrate’s notification said some groups were planning unlawful assemblies, making the restrictions necessary to maintain public order. The directive will remain in force until January 18, 2026.

Protest march in Islamabad

In Islamabad, PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Khan led a protest march from Parliament House to the IHC, where participants chanted slogans against the government for denying access to Imran Khan.

He urged the chief justice to take notice and direct authorities to allow meetings with the former prime minister.

Barrister Ali Zafar said the protests would continue until lawyers and family were allowed to see the PTI founder.

PTI leader Asad Qaiser announced that the group would move towards Adiala Jail after the IHC demonstration, alleging the court had failed to enforce its own order for visitation rights.

Last week, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi also staged a protest outside the jail after being denied a meeting with Imran Khan.

Although weeks of restrictions had raised concerns about his condition, both government and PTI sources reiterated on Tuesday that Imran Khan was in good health.

Asad Qaiser added that he would attend a rally in Quetta on Tuesday, while protests in Islamabad and Rawalpindi would be led by Barrister Gohar and other party leaders.

The opposition’s parliamentary committee has also demanded Imran Khan’s immediate release.

Meanwhile, in the Senate, Federal Law Minister Azam Nazeer Tarar criticised what he called attempts to “target Islamabad using official vehicles with party flags,” saying such actions were unconstitutional.

He stressed that national problems required dialogue, not threats.
