An aircraft displaying the message ‘Release Imran Khan’ flew over the stadium during the India versus Pakistan match at the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 in New York on Sunday. Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) shared a video on their official X (formerly Twitter) handle with the caption ‘Release Imran Khan’. Khan, 71, who was Pakistan’s Prime Minister from 2018 to 2022, has been held in Adiala Jail since August 2023, facing multiple charges including the Toshakhana case, the cipher case, and an un-Islamic marriage case. It’s worth noting that Imran Khan captained Pakistan to victory in their only ODI World Cup win in 1992.
