According to the sources, the former prime minister and other inmates in the facility will not be allowed to meet family members and legal representatives till October 18 due to security concerns.
Sources further revealed that the measure aims to ensure security protocols in the twin cities in light of the upcoming Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit in Islamabad from October 15 to 16.
Around 12 foreign high-level delegations of heads of states including India’s External Affairs Minister Dr. Subrahmanyam Jaishankar will attend the meeting. To ensure security during the summit, the federal govt has deployed the Pakistan Army in Islamabad from October 5 to 17.
Previously, Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi accused the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) of trying to sabotage the upcoming Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit and expressed commitment to ensuring that these plans do not succeed.
Earlier in March this year, prison authorities barred meetings inside the Adiala jail — where Khan imprisoned for more than a year now — for two weeks due to security concerns.
