Imran Khan Alive, Says Lawmaker Amid Death Rumors
Some people on social media said that Imran Khan, a former leader of Pakistan, had died in jail.
But a senator from his party, Khurram Zeeshan, said that Khan is actually alive and in jail.
He also said that the government is trying to make Khan leave the country and not talk about politics.
Khan's family and lawyers have not been allowed to see him for about a month.
The senator believes the government is scared of Khan's popularity and doesn't want people to see pictures of him.
Despite being in jail, Khan's party is still very popular, especially with young people.
Imran Khan is alive and currently lodged in Adiala jail, according to PTI Senator Khurram Zeeshan.
Rumors of Khan's death originated from social media handles in Afghanistan.
Khan has been in isolation for about a month, with his family, lawyers, and party leaders denied access.
The Pakistani government is allegedly pressuring Khan to leave the country and stay silent in exchange for concessions.
Khan's party, PTI, continues to grow in influence, particularly among Pakistan's young population.
