Chairman Sunni Ittehad Counsil Sahibzada Hamid Raza while speaking on Geo News programme has claimed that the former Prime Minister Imran Khan is provided stale food in prison.
“If the story of Imran Khan getting food of his choice is proven true then I will resign from the National Assembly,” exclaimed the SIC head.
“I can say this on stand that Imran Khan is given stale bread (baasi roti). I am saying this in the condition of fast in holy month of Ramadan,” stated Sahibzada.
He also claimed that Khan was given a wooden stand instead of a bed without any pillow for four months.
Minister of State for Railways Bilal Azhar Kayani rejected Hamid Raza’s claim, saying, “PTI founder not only has access to food of his choice, but he has also been provided with exercise equipment, books and TV facilities in prison.”
Previously, media reports alleged that Khan’s customised food menu’s cost allegedly jumped from Rs 400,000-500,000 to Rs700,000-800,000 monthly after Bushra Bibi was also arrested.
Imran Khan reportedly financially responsible for his own food menu at the Adiala Jail, where he is currently imprisoned.
Khan’s highly customised menu reportedly had fresh juice and fruits in breakfast, three coffees a day, pink salmon, and desi chicken broth while all the entire menu is inspected by nutritionists.
