The editorial addresses the deteriorating health of incarcerated PTI leaders, warning that the state risks unnecessary criticism by neglecting prisoners' medical needs. The PTI has raised concerns over the health of former PM Imran Khan, his spouse Bushra Bibi, and Senator Ejaz Chaudhry, citing prolonged detention and restricted medical access as causes of worsening conditions. Mr Khan and Bushra Bibi reportedly suffer from serious eye ailments, while Senator Chaudhry's kidney disease has reached Stage 3. The party demands transfer to proper medical facilities and access to personal physicians. The editorial stresses that regardless of political narratives — PTI's claim of political persecution or the government's emphasis on due process — prisoner health must not become a political tool. Denying prisoners medical care, imposing solitary confinement, or restricting family access serves no justice and only erodes public trust in the administrative and judicial system. Under Article 14 of the Constitution of Pakistan, every citizen, including prisoners, has the right to dignity. The editorial urges the courts, prison authorities, and government to rise above politics and uphold minimum civilised standards of prisoner care.
