ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - PTI founder Imran Khan on Wednesday filed an application in the Islamabad High Court (IHC) imploring the court's intervention regarding meeting with his lawyers and political leaders.

Barrister Ali Zafar, in the petition, named the Interior Secretary, Chief Commissioner, and Adiala Jail Superintendent as respondents.

The petition contends that, despite a court order allowing six lawyers and six political leaders to meet with Khan twice a week, jail authorities are not fully obeying this order.
