Global Cricket Legends Rally for Imran Khan’s Humanitarian Aid

Former cricket legends, including Sunil Gavaskar and Kapil Dev, demand better prison conditions for ex-Pakistani PM and cricket icon Imran Khan. Khan, imprisoned since August 2023, faces health concerns, particularly vision issues. The sporting community urges Pakistan for humanitarian treatment and legal fairness for Khan.

In a rare display of cross-border solidarity, Indian cricket icons Sunil Gavaskar and Kapil Dev, along with a distinguished group of former international captains, have issued a plea for better prison conditions for Imran Khan, Pakistan's former prime minister and cricketing legend.

Khan, renowned for his exemplary cricket career, has been incarcerated since August 2023 after being convicted in numerous cases which he claims are politically motivated. Recent health reports reveal a decline in his vision, raising serious concerns among his supporters.

Despite challenging political relations between India and Pakistan, the cricket community emphasizes the importance of humanitarian treatment for Khan. The appeal urges Pakistani authorities to ensure humane conditions, fair legal processes, and necessary medical care for the esteemed sports figure.
