CALIFORNIA: The sons of jailed PTI founder Imran Khan, Sulaiman Khan (28) and Kasim Khan (26), have launched an international campaign advocating for their father’s release, starting with high-profile meetings in the US.

During their visit to California, they met with Richard Grenell, a top aide to former US President Donald Trump. Grenell, a vocal supporter of Imran Khan, shared a photo of the meeting on social media, urging the brothers to “stay strong” and declared, “Millions of people around the world are fed up with politically motivated cases. You are not alone.”

Imran Khan has been incarcerated in Adiala Jail since August 2023 after being convicted in a £190 million corruption case. He is also facing terrorism-related charges linked to the May 9 protests.

Suleman and Kasim also met with Dr. Asif Mahmood, a Pakistani-American physician and vice chairman of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF), who praised their commitment and Grenell’s solidarity. He stressed the need for collective efforts to secure the former prime minister’s freedom.

Earlier in July, Imran Khan’s sister Aleema Khan announced that the brothers would travel to the United States to raise international awareness about their father’s imprisonment before joining the movement in Pakistan.
