As Imran Khan completes two years in jail, his party is preparing to approach the UN with a new case alleging “torture” and “inhumane” treatment of Pakistan’s former prime minister and his wife in custody.
A UN human rights working group last year found the former leader’s incarceration to be arbitrary and unlawful and ruled the “appropriate remedy would be to release Khan immediately and accord him an enforceable right to compensation and other reparations, in accordance with international law”.
