Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has strongly criticized Jemima Goldsmith following her public concerns about the health and safety of her ex-husband, Imran Khan, in prison.
In a social media post, Jemima expressed deep worry about Imran Khan’s“grave and distressing” conditions in jail, claiming that family visits were blocked, and court hearings delayed. She also mentioned her sons’ distress, stating that Khan is being held in solitary confinement.
Khawaja Asif responded by accusing Jemima of exaggeration, asserting that Imran Khan is being treated with “constant leniency.” He pointed out that during Imran’s tenure as Prime Minister, opposition leaders, including Nawaz Sharif, were treated much more harshly. Asif recalled how Sharif was not allowed to speak to his dying wife, Kulsoom Nawaz, while in jail.
