Jemima Goldsmith has publicly appealed to Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to allow her sons, Kasim and Sulaiman Khan, to meet their father, Imran Khan, who has been imprisoned since August 2023. This request comes amid concerns for Imran Khan’s declining health, as he serves a sentence related to a £190 million corruption case.

Imran Khan’s imprisonment has kept him away from his sons, who have not seen him since November 2022. Jemima Goldsmith emphasized the emotional toll this separation has taken, stating, “They are not allowed to speak to him on the phone, nor send him a letter. They haven’t seen him since 2022 after he was shot in an assassination attempt.” This situation has prompted her urgent appeal for a meeting.

The brothers applied for visas in January 2026 to visit their father, but as of now, they have not received any response. According to the Pakistan consulate, online visa processing typically takes 7–10 working days, yet it has been 60 days since their application was submitted.

Goldsmith’s appeal was made via social media, where she expressed her desperation for her sons to see their father, stating, “This is an appeal directly to Pakistan’s PM Shehbaz Sharif to please allow Imran Khan’s two sons to see their father asap, particularly since, by all accounts, his health is in decline.”

Reports indicate that Imran Khan’s health is a growing concern, leading to a court-ordered medical review to assess his condition. He has undergone evaluations for an eye ailment that is affecting his vision, further complicating his situation.

Kasim Khan, one of his sons, criticized the denial of visitation rights, calling it cruel and labeling the situation as collective punishment. He remarked, “Denying a prisoner treatment was cruel and denying his children the right to see him was collective punishment.” This highlights the emotional and psychological impact of the ongoing legal and political turmoil surrounding Imran Khan.

As the situation develops, the uncertainty surrounding the visa applications and the health of Imran Khan remains a pressing concern for his family and supporters. Details remain unconfirmed regarding any potential changes in his health status or the outcome of the visa requests.
