They have been informed that the meeting will be arranged,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chaudhry said it would become clear once the lawyers returned whether they had met Imran together or separately. As per the court order, each lawyer was to be allowed a one-hour meeting with the PTI founder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Imran has been in prison since August 5, 2023, while his wife was arrested on January 17, 2025, in a separate case in which the couple were sentenced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The IHC has allowed Imran twice-a-week meetings \u2014 on Tuesdays and Thursdays \u2014 with his family, lawyers and other associates. Despite multiple court directives, Imran\u2019s meetings with his family and party leaders have been largely restricted in recent months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On November 2, Safdar met Imran after a gap of seven months for less than an hour. The last time he met in April, the Supreme Court designated Safdar as amicus. However, on Nov 2, he met Imran as his lawyer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PTI Central Information Secretary Sheikh Waqas Akram, speaking to Dawn after the Nov 2 meeting, said that no political issues were discussed as Safdar spoke about the cases and asked about future strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When asked about Imran\u2019s health, Akram replied that although health issues were discussed, the PTI would only speak about the legal cases.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ISLAMABAD(National Times)- Lawyers representing PTI reached Adiala jail on Wednesday to meet party founder and former prime minister Imran Khan, a day after the Islamabad High Court (IHC) issued orders allowing the meeting.
