‘Mohsin Naqvi Is Threatening Us’: Imran Khan’s Sisters Allege Pak Govt Is Plotting To Kill Former PM

The political climate in Pakistan has reached a fever pitch following explosive allegations from the family of jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan.

In a press conference, Khan's sisters, Dr Uzma Khan and Aleema Khan, claimed that the current administration-which they labeled the "Asim Munir regime" is actively orchestrating a "lethal conspiracy" to eliminate the cricketer-turned-politician while he remains in custody, according to a report in News18.

Directly naming Pakistan's Army Chief, Field Marshal Asim Munir, and Interior Minister (also PCB chief) Mohsin Naqvi, the sisters alleged that the government and military are working in tandem to kill Khan. Dr. Uzma recounted a chilling conversation from a recent visit to Adiala Jail, quoting her brother: "These people will kill me; they have made a plan to kill me."

The family's concerns are compounded by reports of Khan's rapidly failing health. Aleema Khan highlighted a message from her brother stating that he is suffering from severe vision loss in one eye. While the government has provided medical reports to the Supreme Court, the family has flatly rejected the findings of state-appointed doctors.

"You have sent a team of doctors to the jail and ask us to accept it... that will not happen," Aleema stated.

The family is demanding Khan's immediate transfer to Shifa International Hospital in Islamabad, insisting he be treated by his personal physicians, Dr. Asim and Dr. Faisal.

The sisters also alleged that they are being personally intimidated. Uzma Khan accused Mohsin Naqvi of issuing direct threats against the family, warning that the authorities have "tasted blood." In a stark escalation of rhetoric, Uzma vowed that if harm should befall her brother, she would seek retribution against the "future generations" of those responsible.

The crisis has resonated far beyond the borders of Pakistan, prompting an unprecedented show of solidarity from the international cricketing community. Deeply concerned by the reports of Khan's deteriorating eyesight and alleged mistreatment, several icons of the sport have penned a formal letter urging the Pakistani authorities to ensure his safety.

Signatories include:

From India: Legendary former captains Sunil Gavaskar and Kapil Dev, who have set aside historic rivalries to advocate for the 73-year-old's basic human rights.

From Pakistan: Khan's former "Cornered Tigers" teammates, Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis, who joined the call for immediate medical intervention.
