PTI leader Yasmin Rashid was admitted to Lahore’s Shaukat Khanum Hospital (SKH) on Monday, said her lawyer.

Her lawyer, Advocate Rana Mudassar Umer, said that her condition deteriorated because her treatment was delayed. He added that the court has several times given orders for her treatment.

Yasmin has been in prison for over a year now in connection with multiple cases against her regarding the events of May 9, 2023, when countrywide protests and riots broke out after the arrest of PTI founder Imran Khan.

She was first detained on May 12 last year under the Maintenance of Public Order Ordinance and later arrested for her alleged involvement in the May 9 riots. She was admitted to Lahore’s Services Hospital in May after falling unconscious in Kot Lakhpat Jail.
