Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder and former chairman Imran Khan was visited by his sister Noreen Niazi at Adiala Jail, while another of his sisters, Aleema Khan, said that relief for the former prime minister could only come through the courts. According to reports, Noreen Niazi met Imran Khan at Adiala Jail and later returned to the Factory Check Post. Media representatives and PTI workers attempted to ask her questions but she did not speak to the media and left without commenting. Speaking to the media outside Adiala Jail, Aleema Khan raised concerns about restrictions on meetings and communication with Imran Khan. She said that Imran Khan had still not been allowed to speak with his children, describing the situation as contempt of court. She also said that she and Dr. Uzma Khan had not been allowed to meet him. Aleema Khan maintained that the family was following court orders and questioned why the government was allegedly reluctant to implement them. She said that Dr. Uzma and Dr. Faisal had spoken about their experiences and that the family would present its concerns before the court. She further said that people were expressing relief because the courts appeared to be making efforts to ensure justice. According to Aleema Khan, public confidence in the judiciary could decline if people did not receive justice. “Courts themselves have to provide relief to the PTI founder,” Aleema Khan said emphasizing that the family’s hopes remained attached to the judiciary. She also criticized what she described as the government’s failure to follow court orders, saying that refusing to implement judicial decisions could create the impression that the authorities did not recognize the courts. Aleema Khan said she stood with judges who were working according to the law and urged Pakistanis to stand with their courts as well. The meeting between Noreen Niazi and Imran Khan comes amid continuing legal and political tensions surrounding the PTI founder. Aleema Khan’s remarks have once again highlighted the importance of judicial decisions and their implementation in matters concerning Imran Khan.

  Skardu: Rescue teams have recovered the bodies of eight climbers who went missing after a massive avalanche struck Broad Peak, one of the world’s highest mountains, in northern Pakistan. The tragic incident has shocked the international mountaineering community and prompted an extensive search-and-rescue operation in the Karakoram mountain range. According to officials, four additional bodies were located during the latest phase of the rescue mission, bringing the total number of recovered victims to eight. Earlier in the day, rescue teams had already found four bodies in the avalanche-hit area. Of the four bodies recovered most recently, three have been airlifted by helicopter to Skardu for identification and further legal formalities. Rescue authorities are continuing efforts to locate the remaining two missing climbers, despite extremely challenging weather conditions, difficult terrain, and the constant risk of further avalanches. The search operation remains active on Broad Peak, with rescue personnel working around the clock to find the missing mountaineers. Helicopters, local rescue teams, and experienced high-altitude climbers are taking part in the mission, while authorities continue to monitor weather conditions that could affect ongoing operations. Provincial Minister for Tourism Nek Nam Karim said the government is making every possible effort to locate the remaining climbers. He stated that the Tourism Department is providing full logistical support to rescue teams, including transportation, coordination, and essential equipment required for high-altitude search operations. The group of missing climbers represents several countries, highlighting the international nature of mountaineering expeditions in Pakistan. The team includes climbers from the United States, China, Nepal, Oman, and Pakistani mountaineer Sohail Sakhi, who remains among those unaccounted for. Authorities are maintaining close contact with the embassies of the affected countries and are keeping the families of the climbers informed about developments in the rescue operation. Broad Peak, located in Pakistan’s Gilgit-Baltistan region, is the 12th-highest mountain in the world, standing at ,8047 metres (26,401 feet)above sea level. It lies within the Karakoram mountain range, close to K2, and is regarded as one of the world’s most demanding climbing destinations. Every year, experienced mountaineers from across the globe travel to Pakistan in an attempt to summit the towering peak. However, climbing Broad Peak is extremely hazardous. Mountaineers face unpredictable weather, heavy snowfall, strong winds, crevasses, and the constant threat of avalanches. Even highly skilled climbers can find themselves in life-threatening situations due to rapidly changing mountain conditions. The latest tragedy serves as a painful reminder of the dangers associated with high-altitude mountaineering. Rescue officials have acknowledged that operations at such elevations are exceptionally difficult because of thin air, freezing temperatures, and limited access to the affected areas. As the search for the remaining missing climbers continues, hopes remain that rescue teams may still locate them. At the same time, condolences continue to pour in for the victims and their families. The incident has once again highlighted both the breathtaking beauty and the unforgiving dangers of Pakistan’s towering Karakoram mountains, where adventure and risk often go hand in hand.
