Pakistan Supreme Court Orders Imran Khan Hospital Transfer

The court mandated a medical board to oversee Khan's care following a legal battle over his health. A lawyer previously told the court that Khan has only 15 percent vision remaining in his right eye due to alleged neglect. His legal team also petitioned for his release on medical grounds as his condition reportedly deteriorated. Government officials claimed in January that Khan was in good health after a minor eye procedure. The Supreme Court's order to transfer him to a hospital concludes a long access battle.
