epa10824067 Supporters of former Pakistani prime minister Imran Khan shout slogans to demand his release during a protest in Karachi, Pakistan, 27 August 2023. Pakistan's former prime minister Imran Khan, on 08 August, challenged his three-year jail term for corruption, which also disqualified him from running for public office for five years, his party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) announced. Following his conviction, Khan was arrested at his Lahore residence during the weekend and imprisoned in a jail in Punjab's Attock city, some 84 km south of Islamabad. Khan told his main counsel Naeem Haider that the authorities have kept him in a C-class jail with no special facilities usually reserved for high-profile political prisoners ? like an air-conditioner, bed, table, chair, light, tv, and newspaper ? available to him.
