Medical report declares Imran Khan alcoholic, drug abuser, rules out leg fracture: Patel
- Health Minister says that Imran Khan’s medical report is a ‘public document’.
- Says Khan’s movements, body language “not that of a fit man”.
- What Khan is doing can only be done by an agent or a madman: Wazir
Health Minister Abdul Qadir Patel on Friday referred to the details of former Prime Minister Imran Khan’s medical report, saying it indicated heavy drinking, fractured leg and unstable mental health.
Patel was speaking to the media in Karachi about the former prime minister’s medical report after his arrest on May 9, after being examined at Pims Hospital.
At the start of the press conference, the health minister said it was a “public document” before giving details of the report.
He said the report did not contain any details about his foot fracture, which Khan claimed he sustained after the November 3 murder bid.
“They [Imran Khan] He had a plaster cast on his foot for about five to six months, but the medical report did not indicate any fracture.
The federal minister said that the urine sample of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief has also been taken. He said that the initial report showed the presence of toxic substances and high consumption of alcohol and cocaine.
He said the report also spoke about Khan’s mental health, according to which his actions and body language were “not that of a fit man”.
“The report says that a person with stable mental health does not make these kinds of gestures,” he said.
“I also used to say that Imran Khan’s mental state is not right,” Patel said, adding that the PTI chief has lost decency, political tolerance and respect for others in politics.
Patel added that what Khan says is different from his medical report. “Imran Khan’s report did not identify any fractures, but [consumption of] Powder,” he continued.
The Health Minister said that the detailed report will be sent to the police after receiving it. He said that whatever Khan is doing can only be done by an agent or a madman.
“A five-member panel of senior doctors is saying there is a question mark over his mental stability,” Patel said.
Talking about the events of May 9, the minister said that he had not seen such a situation since 1971. “We also had our differences but we stood by the army in difficult times.”
