He alleged that no family member was informed of her transfer to the hospital. The PTI expressed serious concern over the reported deterioration in Noreen’s health in detention and her transfer to the PIC in Lahore, in what the party described as an "extremely alarming condition".
In a statement shared on X, the party criticised the authorities over the treatment of the 70-year-old, alleging that she was being held in illegal and unconstitutional detention. The PTI described the situation as an example of state oppression and raised concerns about the risks to her health.
"The most shameful thing is that, despite such a grave situation, not even a single family member was informed about her transfer to the hospital," the party said, while questioning the legal and administrative basis for transferring an elderly woman to the hospital without informing her loved ones.
نورین نیازی کی جیل میں طبیعت خراب ہونے اور انہیں انتہائی تشویشناک حالت میں پنجاب کارڈیالوجی منتقل کرنے کی خبر نے اس ظالم اور فاشسٹ نظام کا مکروہ چہرہ ایک بار پھر بے نقاب کر دیا۔ 70 سالہ بزرگ خاتون کو غیر قانونی اور غیر آئینی طور پر قید رکھ کر ان کی جان سے کھیلنا ریاستی دہشت گردی کی بدترین مثال ہے۔ سب سے زیادہ شرمناک بات یہ ہے کہ اتنی سنگین صورتحال کے باوجود ان کے کسی بھی خاندان کے فرد کو ہسپتال منتقلی کی اطلاع تک نہیں دی گئی۔ صرف اقتدار پر ناجائز قبضہ برقرار رکھنے کے لیے عمران خان کی ہم شیرہ اور ان کے خاندان کو بلاوجہ ہراسانی اور بربریت کا نشانہ بنایا جا رہا ہے۔ بیمار اور بزرگ خاتون کو ہسپتال منتقل کر کے ان کے پیاروں سے چھپانا کس قانون اور کس نظام کا اصول ہے؟ یہ غاصب حکمران یاد رکھیں کہ ظلم جب حد سے بڑھتا ہے تو مٹ جاتا ہے۔ اگر انہیں کچھ ہوا تو اس کی تمام ذمہ داری براہ راست موجودہ حکمرانوں اور متعلقہ انتظامیہ پر ہوگی۔
