Live from New York: Aleema Khan Uncovers 'Unprecedented Breakdown' in Pakistan.

“They won’t even dare touch a hair on his head," Aleema Khan, sister of former Pakistan prime minister Imran Khan, warned on Thursday as she addressed the rumours around his safety and sharply criticised what she called an “unprecedented breakdown of Pakistan’s justice system".

Aleema Khan said Imran Khan has been “isolated for at least six weeks", with family members blocked from their court-mandated Tuesday meeting slots despite judicial orders guaranteeing access. “They are in contempt of court on everything," she said in an exclusive conversation with CNN-News18. “The justice system has completely collapsed. There are good judges, but their autonomy has been withdrawn."

Training her guns on the government and Field Marshal Asim Munir, she linked it to the recent constitutional changes, including what she described as a “person-specific" 27th Amendment. “A few people are giving themselves complete immunity from the law," she said, calling it a “reality check for all of us".

Amid swirling speculation about Imran Khan’s health, including rumours of his death, Aleema Khan said during his last confirmed family meeting three to four weeks ago, he was in “excellent health". “They can’t claim he died of old age or illness," she said. “The problem is: how do we confirm his health now? Since we have not met him in three weeks, and no one has access, how do we know he is okay?"

Still, she insisted authorities would not risk harming him. “There is huge anger in Pakistan," she said. “If anything happens to Khan, do you think people will sit around and let them live? They [authorities] know exactly what would follow."

“We have the right to sit on a sidewalk and protest," she said. “But they attacked us. They dragged my sister, who is 71 years old, and she passed out. Young women were beaten. We were dropped a kilometre away from the prison but we came back."
