Wife given food mixed with toilet cleaner, claims Imran Khan
Imran Khan, the former Prime Minister of Pakistan currently serving time in jail, has made serious accusations about his wife's treatment during her house arrest. He alleges that Bushra Bibi was served food laced with a "toilet cleaner," leading to persistent stomach infections. The shocking claim was made during a £190 million corruption case hearing at Adiala jail in Rawalpindi, as reported by The Express Tribune.
Judge orders medical checkup of both Khan, Bibi
Khan also stated that Dr. Asim Yousaf, the Chief Medical Officer of Shaukat Khanum Hospital, recommended that Bibi undergo tests at Shifa International Hospital. However, jail authorities insisted on conducting the tests at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences Hospital. Following Khan's remarks, the judge ordered that Dr. Yousaf conduct a medical checkup on both Khan and Bibi.
Khan implicates Army chief in wife's incarceration
Prior to the poisoning allegations, Khan had implicated Pakistan Army Chief General Asim Munir in Bibi's incarceration. He stated that "General Asim Munir is directly involved in the sentence awarded to my wife" and threatened to expose Munir's "unconstitutional and illegal steps" if anything happened to his wife. Khan has been imprisoned at Adiala Jail since August of last year, while Bibi is currently under house arrest at their Bani Gala residence on the outskirts of Islamabad.
Khan, Bibi sentenced to 7 years for violating Islamic law
In February, a Pakistani court sentenced Khan and Bibi to seven years in prison for violating Islamic law. Bibi's former husband, Khawar Maneka, filed the case against the pair last year, alleging that Bibi didn't observe the three-month break required under Islamic law before remarrying Khan. Maneka claimed he divorced Bibi in November 2017, while Khan announced his marriage to Bibi in February 2018.
