Imran Khan’s Sisters Aleema, Uzma & Noreen Detained for 30 Days Ahead of PTI Protests.
In a major pre-emptive move to control upcoming political demonstrations, Punjab authorities have issued 30-day detention orders under Section 3 of the Maintenance of Public Order (MPO) Ordinance against former Prime Minister Imran Khan's sisters: Aleema Khan, Dr. Uzma Khan, and Noreen Niazi. Issued by the Lahore Deputy Commissioner, the detention orders allege that the sisters were involved in mobilizing workers and inciting public disruption ahead of planned Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) rallies across Punjab and Islamabad. All three have been shifted to Central Jail, Kot Lakhpat, while family members briefly taken into custody were subsequently released.
The detentions have drawn fierce criticism from PTI leadership, including Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan and Secretary General Salman Akram Raja, who condemned the actions as political victimization aimed at sabotaging peaceful constitutional protests. Legal counsel representing the family has formally challenged the 30-day MPO detention orders in the Lahore High Court, arguing that the preventive measures violate fundamental rights and lack substantive legal grounds.
