Imran Khan shares mental health journey
Imran Khan discusses his ongoing mental health journey, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing wellness and seeking professional support.
Pakistan former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s son Hussain Nawaz claimed on Tuesday that his father health condition deteriorated because he might have been given “poison” in the custody of the anti-graft body.
Taking to Twitter, Hussain Nawaz tweeted from London, “My father might have been given poison as his platelets were critically low when he was shifted to the hospital”.
The three-time former prime minister and supreme leader of the PML-N was shifted to the Services Hospital Lahore late on Monday after his condition deteriorated.

Hussain said that Imran Khan government will have to give an answer for not shifting Nawaz Sharif to the hospital on time despite his critically low platelets count – 16,000, as per his fresh medical reports.
“While a substantially reduced platelet count is in itself very serious and potentially life-threatening why his father was not shifted to hospital. Will the government explain this?” he asked.
“Nawaz Sharif’s platelet count has increased to 20,000 from 2,000,” PML-N leader Attaullah Tarar told PTI.
“Doctors said that the condition of Nawaz Sharif is still “serious” and he will remain in hospital till it improves”, he added.
According to doctors further report, normal platelets count ranges between 150,000 and 400,000.
Earlier this month, the National Accountability Bureau had issued arrest warrants against Nawaz Sharif in Chaudhry Sugar Mills case and was likely to present him before an accountability court.
Sharif has been serving a seven-year imprisonment in Al-Azizia Mills corruption case. NAB has already arrested his daughter Maryam Nawaz and nephew Yousuf Abbas in the Chaudhry Sugar Mills case. Both of them are on judicial remand till Oct 23.
In August, two government hospitals had denied a specialised cardiac ambulance facility for emergency medical cover to Nawaz Sharif in the Central Jail.
