Despite three years of confinement, ex-Prime Minister Imran Khan continued to receive love from supporters. Dozens of people lined the streets late Thursday night, waiting to get a glimpse of him, as his convoy made its way to hospital. Some threw flower petals to show their continued support for the embattled former leader.

Khan did not stay long in at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Services in Islamabad.

According to reports, a panel comprising a cardiologist, an ophthalmologist and a general physician examined Khan.
