    About our Imran Khan news

    Latest news on Imran Khan, former Pakistan PM and cricket legend, covering his political career, legal battles, imprisonment and ongoing influence in Pakistani politics.

    Imran Khan, Pakistan's former Prime Minister and cricket World Cup-winning captain, remains one of the country's most influential political figures despite his current imprisonment. As founder of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and a transformative political leader, Khan has shaped Pakistan's political landscape significantly since entering politics in 1996.

    Currently serving multiple prison sentences, Khan faces numerous legal challenges. His convictions include a 10-year sentence for leaking state secrets in the 'cypher case', 14 years for illegally selling state gifts in the Toshakhana case, and 7 years for an unlawful marriage - though some convictions have recently been overturned on appeal. Despite his imprisonment since August 2023, Khan maintains significant popular support, particularly among young Pakistanis.

    The human dimension of Khan's story reflects Pakistan's complex political dynamics. His supporters view him as a victim of political persecution, while critics argue he undermined democratic institutions during his premiership. His imprisonment conditions have drawn international attention, with the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention calling for his release and Amnesty International raising concerns about his detention conditions.

    Khan's journey from cricket superstar to political leader is remarkable. After leading Pakistan to its only Cricket World Cup victory in 1992, he established the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital, demonstrating his philanthropic commitments. His political career culminated in becoming Prime Minister in 2018, where he implemented significant economic reforms and social welfare programmes like the Ehsaas Programme, though his tenure ended with a controversial no-confidence vote in 2022.

    Our NewsNow feed provides comprehensive coverage of Imran Khan's ongoing legal battles, political influence, and impact on Pakistani society. From court proceedings to political developments, stay informed about one of South Asia's most compelling political figures through our curated selection of reliable news sources.
