2 out of the 3 sisters imprisoned in Kot Lakhpat Jail of former Prime Minister Imran Khan namely Noreen Niazi and Uzma Khan were released. According to the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Punjab spokesperson, Aleema Khan has not been released and is "still unjustly imprisoned". The two released women were initially detained on September 21 before a long march towards Islamabad on September 27 to demand the release of Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi and other demands by ousted Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi. Later, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) postponed this march till October 4, on the seventh day of its commencement, the federal government imposed governor's rule and emergency in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. A day before the detention of Noreen and Uzma, on September 20, Imran Khan's third sister Aleema Khan was also detained. The three sisters were detained under Section Three of the Punjab Maintenance of Public Order Ordinance 1960 (3MPO) and initially detained for 30 days. His detention order was challenged in the Lahore High Court on the same day, requesting immediate suspension of the detention notification, which was rejected by the court after 4 days. During the hearing on the petition filed by their families for their release after the completion of 30 days of detention, the public prosecutor, while presenting a report on behalf of the Home Secretary, told the court that the period of detention of the three women was extended by another 30 days on October 7. Last week, Uzma Khan's son, in a post on X, expressed concern about the health of his mother, who is detained in Kot Lakhpat Jail, and demanded to be allowed to be examined by a personal physician.
