The Punjab Ministry of Empire has implemented changes in the prison regulations, allowing inmates to serve judgments in their local areas and evokes discussions about whether this will affect Imran Khan.

The Ministry has recently approved significant changes in the prison regulations, which marks a key change in the management of imprisoned persons in the province.

A meeting Monday reviewed reports on the implementation of these reforms, which include provisions aimed at improving the living conditions and rehabilitation of prisoners.

One of the most notable changes is the new rule that allows convicted prisoners to serve their judgments in prisons located in their original regions. Earlier, according to the prison rules, criminals had to serve their convictions in the prison in the area where the crime was committed.

However, the revised rules now allow criminals to be transferred to prisons in their own districts, provided they are convicted in Punjab.

An officer explained, “Although the rules are in place, the situation remains for high -profile cases like Imran Khan’s different. He had previously approached the court regarding this question, but due to security concerns he did not receive a transfer. Even after the rules change if his permanent stay is still in Lahore, it is likely that his security needs will be prioritized. “

Meanwhile, the spokesman for the Punjab Ministry of the Interior stated that the new rules have been largely implemented, although each case involving prisoner transfers will be assessed individually.

“The department has received some requests from criminals who wish to remain in their current prisons, and these requests are considered on a case -by -case basis with input from security agencies taken into account,” they added.

In addition to these changes, the ministry has also introduced a significant shift in how prison work is compensated. According to the new rules, prisoners will no longer work for free.

Instead, prisons will now operate internal factories through public-private partnerships and produce different goods. The created products will be sold on the market and earnings will be used to compensate the prisoners.

This marks the first time in the province that prisoners are paid for labor as part of their judgment, a significant step towards improving their welfare and rehabilitation prospects while earning their time.
