ISLAMABAD:
Minister of State for Interior Talal Chaudhry has strongly rejected what he described as “misleading and baseless propaganda” regarding the PTI founder’s health, saying the claims circulating on social media are “contrary to verified medical facts”.
In a detailed statement issued on his social media platform X, Senator Chaudhry wrote “The misleading propaganda about the PTI founder’s health is completely against the facts. A senior medical board comprising specialists – including eye specialists, cardiologists, ENT experts, dental surgeons and others – examines him regularly. All treatment is carried out strictly under international medical standards.”
He further stated that the PTI founder underwent several eye treatments at PIMS Islamabad under the supervision of specialists and after the treatment, his vision was reported as 6/6, confirming that the procedure was successful.
Senator Chaudhry noted that even the Supreme Court of Pakistan had expressed satisfaction with the comprehensive medical report submitted by the Inspector General of Prisons.
“The reality is that perhaps no prisoner in the history of Pakistan has received such facilities. His eye has not been damaged,” he said.
