More than a dozen former international cricket captains have urged Pakistan’s government to ensure humane treatment and proper medical care for jailed former Prime Minister and 1992 World Cup-winning captain Imran Khan. The appeal highlights concerns about Khan’s health, particularly reported problems with his eyesight, and calls for treatment by doctors of his choice. The captains also stressed that Khan should be treated with dignity and basic human consideration while in prison. The appeal comes amid continuing political and legal tensions surrounding Khan’s imprisonment and growing concerns from his family and supporters about his health and prison conditions.
