Shah Mahmood Qureshi Moved to Hospital After Chest Pain in Jail
- Senior PTI figure Shah Mahmood Qureshi was moved from his confinement in Lahore’s Kot Lakhpat facility to a cardiac hospital on May 17 after he reported chest discomfort following the early morning Fajr prayer.
- Since his arrest linked to the unrest on May 9, 2023, following Imran Khan's detention, Qureshi has remained detained, facing multiple charges including recent indictments issued by a Lahore anti-terrorism court.
- Prison doctors initially examined Qureshi but transferred him urgently via Rescue 1122 for further tests and treatment because his condition did not improve.
- Qureshi’s daughter Meher Bano posted on X that her “brave baba is under observation in PIC” and thanked people while asking for prayers for all under unjust incarceration.
- The transfer underscores concerns for Qureshi’s health amid ongoing political tensions and calls from supporters for his fair and adequate medical treatment.
