The Supreme Court is set to take up on Thursday a contempt of court appeal relating to restrictions imposed on meetings with PTI founder Imran Khan, marking a key development in a case that has remained pending amid a growing backlog of similar petitions.
Hearing Scheduled
The apex court has fixed for hearing both a contempt appeal challenging the non-implementation of earlier orders regarding access to the PTI founder and a separate miscellaneous application filed by his sister, Uzma Khan. The matter will be heard by a three-member bench.
Case Background
The contempt appeal stems from earlier court orders that mandated unimpeded access for visitors to Imran Khan, who is currently incarcerated. The petitioner alleges that authorities have not complied with these directives, leading to the current legal action.
Uzma Khan's application seeks similar relief, requesting the court to ensure her brother's right to meet family members and legal representatives without hindrance.
Legal experts note that the case has been delayed due to a heavy caseload, but today's hearing signals renewed judicial attention to the matter.
