Former Prime Minister Imran Khan's conversation with his lawyers and representatives of media in Adiala Jail - January 10, 2025 “Bushra Bibi is a homemaker and a modest woman who observes full veil. False and baseless cases have been filed against her solely to put pressure on me. The Al-Qadir case is part of the same campaign. Bushra Bibi was confined to a room at our Bani Gala residence for three months. She had to file a petition in the High Court requesting to be treated like a regular prisoner. She was then incarcerated in Adiala Jail for nine months under the harshest conditions, which served no purpose other than to pressure us. Bushra Bibi has not been in contact with anyone. Any claims to the contrary are mere propaganda. Our negotiations committee is handling these matters. I strongly condemn the social media campaign against Bushra Bibi. I categorically deny the insinuation that my release had been agreed if our march stopped at Sangjani. Controversies like the Sangjani issue have been used to deflect attention from actual issues. I fully understand the government's malicious intent. Having served as Prime Minister for three and a half years, I know exactly how they operate. Reaching Islamabad's D-Chowk with our workers was a victory for Bushra Bibi, and I commend her for this achievement. She only followed my instructions."
