Imran Khan, the founder of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), was not visited by any party leader, family member, attorney, or member of the negotiation committee on Thursday at Adiala Jail, even though it was a scheduled meeting day.

For the first time in a year and a half, the former prime minister was alone during a whole meeting day.

The jail manual specifies Tuesday and Thursday as meeting days, providing a regular opportunity for communication. Sources, however, verified that none of the visitors got in touch with the jail administration or turned in the list of names needed to get entrance.

As the conference came to an end, PTI attorney Faisal Chaudhry disclosed that he had contacted jail officials on Wednesday at Omer Ayub’s direction. “I waited all day, but I never heard back, so the committee meeting was unable to happen,” Faisal said.

But according to jail officials, no PTI leader has called the jail administration for a meeting in the past two days. Visits are conducted in accordance with the established schedule, they clarified.

When the Toshakhana 2 case is heard tomorrow, there will be another meeting. “For two days, no request or list of visitors was submitted, nor did anyone come to meet the PTI founder,” a prison official said. According to jail sources, the PTI leadership forwards visitor names to the jail administration, but since Wednesday morning, no submissions have been made.

“The prison authorities do not have jurisdiction over the negotiation committee meeting,” the sources explained.

In past instances, PTI leaders and lawyers frequently arrived at the jail even without prior permission. However, this time, no effort was made by any party representative to reach Adiala Jail.

The PTI founder’s court appearance in the Tosha Khana II case tomorrow may present another chance for a meeting, according to sources. For the time being, the PTI founder remained isolated as the day came to a close.

The 74th Wild Poliovirus type 1 Case of 2024 in the Nation has been confirmed by the National Institutes of Health’s Regional Reference Laboratory for Polio Eradication.
One Shikarpur polio case was confirmed by the lab. This case started on December 15, 2024. This is Shikarpur’s second polio case of 2024.
In 2024, Pakistan reported 74 cases in total. Of these, one each from Punjab and Islamabad, 27 from Balochistan, 23 from Sindh, and 22 from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Only one case of polio has been reported from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in 2025.
Polio is a crippling illness for which there is no treatment. To provide children a high level of immunity against this horrible disease, all children under the age of five must receive multiple doses of the oral polio vaccine and complete the recommended vaccination schedule.
The Expanded Program on Immunization offers vaccinations against 12 childhood diseases at no cost at health facilities, while the Pakistan Polio Program organizes many large vaccination drives throughout the year to provide the vaccine to children at their doorstep.
