News Desk

ISLAMABAD: Former Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi has reportedly fallen ill while in custody, collapsing during a routine walk in jail on Wednesday.

The incident has raised alarms regarding his health and treatment while incarcerated.

Sources close to Qureshi revealed that he experienced dizziness and fainted while walking in the prison yard. Medical staff were immediately summoned to assess his condition.

Qureshi, a senior leader of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party, has been in jail since his arrest earlier this month amid ongoing political turmoil in the country.

This incident highlights the growing concerns over the treatment of political prisoners in Pakistan, particularly those associated with the PTI.

Observers fear that deteriorating health conditions among detained politicians could lead to further unrest and public outcry, potentially impacting the already volatile political landscape.

Authorities have not yet released a statement regarding Qureshi’s health, but calls for transparency and proper medical care are mounting.

As the situation develops, it remains to be seen whether Qureshi will receive the necessary medical attention and how this will affect his legal proceedings.
