SC orders Adiala superintendent, other officials to submit replies on denial of access to Imran
The Supreme Court ordered Adiala jail superintendent and other officials to submit replies within three weeks regarding denial of access to Imran Khan. The court is reviewing a petition challenging the Islamabad High Court's dismissal of a contempt case seeking enforcement of visitation rights for Khan's legal team. The petition argues the high court failed to verify compliance with judicial directives and misapplied prison rules against constitutional rights.
