ISLAMABAD: Former president Asif Ali Zardari has been shifted to Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) from Adiala Jail for a medical checkup, jail authorities said on Thursday.
According to the jail officials, the cardiac centre at PIMS will be designated as a “sub-jail” for the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader while he undergoes medical treatment there.
PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari earlier this week met his father and paternal aunt, Faryal Talpur, at Adiala Jail , following which he claimed that the government was “attempting to kill” the former president by denying him medical facilities in prison.
The former president has been incarcerated in Adiala jail since August 16 after an accountability court changed his physical remand to judicial remand in the money laundering through fake accounts case. On June 10, a National Accountability Bureau team arrested Zardari after the Islamabad High Court rejected petition seeking extension in his pre-arrest bail. The PPP leader was again arrested in the Park Lane case.
