PTI livid after party leaders, Imran’s sisters ‘removed from Adiala’

RAWALPINDI: The situation around Adiala jail in Rawalpindi remained tense on Thursday after police once again stopped the family of incarcerated PTI founder Imran Khan from meeting him in pri­son, despite an order by the high court in this regard.

Police briefly detained the sisters of the former prime minister at a checkpoint close to the heavily guarded prison after the PTI leaders engaged in a heated argument with pol­ice officials for not allowing them to meet the incarcerated party founder.
