Protests Erupt Over Imran Khan's Jail Conditions
There are big protests outside Adiala Jail in Pakistan because Imran Khan's family and supporters are upset.
They say Imran Khan, who used to be the prime minister, is being treated badly in jail.
The police used water cannons on the protesters in the cold.
The family wants to visit Imran, but the jail authorities won't let them.
They say this is not fair and that Imran is being kept alone and not allowed to see anyone.
The government says the family was talking about politics during their visit, which is not allowed.
The protesters are very angry and want the jail to follow the court's rules and let the family see Imran.
Protests erupted outside Adiala Jail after Imran Khan's sisters and PTI supporters were denied family visits.
Police used water cannons on protesters in freezing temperatures, escalating tensions.
Imran Khan has been in solitary confinement with no family or legal visits for over a week.
The Islamabad High Court had ordered that visits be allowed on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
The government banned Uzma Khan from visits due to alleged political discussions during a previous meeting.
