Imran Khan to be moved to hospital amid rising health concerns

Former Pakistan captain and Prime Minister Imran Khan will be moved to hospital amid rising concerns about his health, according to ESPNcricinfo.

A government minister, Tariq Fazal Chaudhary said in a post on X, formerly Twitter, that "considering his health, it has been decided to shift him to hospital and form a medical board". The decision came amidst rising pressure on the government from the opposition, who have staged a parliamentary sit-in at Parliament House until appropriate medical care is provided to Imran. The sit-in is into its second day.

Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis have led calls for Imran to be allowed appropriate medical access in prison after reports have emerged that he has lost most of the vision in his right eye.
