Disclaimer: This piece draws from recent reports and social media trends as of November 27, 2025. Rumors of Imran Khan’s death or severe harm remain unverified and have been debunked by fact-checkers; official PTI channels confirm he’s alive but in isolation. Always cross-check with reliable sources—speculation can inflame tensions.
Imran Khan is still in Adiala Jail, Rawalpindi. Same cell block, same high walls, same Punjab summer heat that makes the concrete stink. He’s alive. He’s breathing. But nobody from his family has clapped eyes on him in over five weeks, and that’s what’s driving everyone insane.
Tuesday night (26 Nov 2025) his sisters rolled up to the gate again. Aleema Khala, Noreen, Uzma — three tough women who’ve been doing this circus for years. They just wanted their weekly visit. Instead, lady cops jumped them. Actual hair-pulling, pushing sixty-year-old women to the ground, the whole shameful scene caught on phone cameras. Aleema went live on Instagram straight after, hair messed up, voice shaking with anger more than fear: “They dragged us like we’re criminals for asking about our brother.”
That video hit X and the place caught fire. By midnight thousands of PTI workers were outside the jail banging on the gates, shouting “Zinda hai Imran, zinda hai!” because for the last couple of days random accounts (some Afghan handles, some throwaways) had started posting that he’d been killed in his cell. Same old recycled photo from the 2022 Wazirabad attack, new caption saying “body moved at 3 a.m.” Total bullshit, but you know how fast that stuff spreads when people are already scared.
The jail superintendent finally put out a one-line statement yesterday morning: “The inmate is safe and sound, rumors are baseless.” That’s it. No photo, no five-minute video call, nothing. Just take our word for it. And people are tired of taking anyone’s word in this country.
So the question everybody’s asking isn’t “Is he dead?” anymore. It’s “Why the hell are they hiding him like this?” Court orders say family gets to meet every week. Lawyers are supposed to get access. Even the bloody K-P governor says he’s been trying for days and keeps getting turned away. Bushra Bibi is in the women’s side of the same jail and even she hasn’t seen him properly in weeks.
The sisters say he’s been moved to the “death cell” section — tiny windowless room, lights on 24/7, no human contact. They’re worried about his kidneys (he’s had issues before) and about the bruises he used to hide under full sleeves when they last saw him. Poison rumors, beating rumors, all the usual dark stuff that floats around when someone’s locked up and the state wants him quiet.
Outside, the workers are exhausted but stubborn. One guy I saw on a live last night had tears streaming down his face: “Bus dikha do captain ko, bas itna sa waada hai.” Just show us the captain, that’s all we’re asking.
Today parliament’s having some “emergency” session that’s supposedly about the economy, but everyone knows it’s to figure out how to cool this thing down before it blows up properly. Meanwhile PTI has said every Tuesday is now “Adiala Day” — they’ll keep coming back until someone opens the damn gate.
That’s where things stand right now. Imran Khan is inside those walls, very much alive, but being treated like a state secret. His people are outside, hearts in their throats, just wanting one glimpse to shut up the nightmares.
