Imran Khan’s sons meet Trump’s adviser to push for father’s release from prison

The sons of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan, Qasim Khan and Sulaiman Khan, arrived in the United States to lobby for their father’s release from prison. As part of their efforts, they are reportedly holding meetings with American politicians and influential figures.

Earlier, the two had publicly stated their commitment to advocating for their father's release. In line with this, they recently met with US President Donald Trump’s special envoy Richard Grenell, who has previously called for an end to Imran Khan’s imprisonment at Adiala Jail.

Qasim and Sulaiman have also voiced concerns about their father’s deteriorating health, highlighting that he has been denied access to his personal physician, legal team, and communication with family members.

“This is not justice. It is a deliberate attempt to isolate and break a man who stood for rule of law, democracy, and Pakistan,” Qasim said in a post on X

Imran Khan’s sister, Aleema Khan, had earlier told the media that the two brothers planned to visit Pakistan to join PTI’s protest campaign demanding the release of its incarcerated leader.

She reaffirmed this statement on Tuesday, saying Qasim and Sulaiman would first conclude their visit to the US and then travel to Pakistan to meet their father in jail.

However, Federal Minister Rana Sanaullah issued a warning, stating that if Imran Khan’s sons participate in any violent demonstrations, they could face arrest. He added that only the British High Commission would then be in a position to intervene and facilitate their return to the UK.

While Qasim and Sulaiman have been vocal in criticising their father’s imprisonment, they have not officially confirmed whether they intend to visit Pakistan.

In a previous interview, Qasim revealed that Imran Khan had always wanted his sons to stay out of politics and maintain a low public profile. He added that during previous visits to Pakistan, they were placed under strict security and not permitted to move around freely.
