Pakistan Arrests Imran Khan's Sisters Ahead of Planned Release Protests

Authorities in Pakistan have arrested three sisters of former Prime Minister Imran Khan, Aleema Khan, Uzma Khan, and Noreen Niazi, as part of a broader crackdown on planned protests. The sisters have been jailed for 30 days under a warrant alleging they pose a threat to public order.

The detentions come as Khan's political party was organizing nationwide demonstrations to demand the release of the imprisoned former prime minister. Critics of the government view these arrests as a move to suppress dissent and prevent public mobilization. The political climate in Pakistan remains tense, with concerns growing over the well-being of Imran Khan in prison.
