On March 12, police issued a ban on media coverage outside Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi, where former Prime Minister Imran Khan was meeting with party leaders and workers.
The ban, announced by Rawalpindi police, restricts journalists from gathering or covering events outside the jail premises.
After the conclusion of the meeting between the founder of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) , Imran Khan, and party leaders at Adiala Jail, journalists eagerly awaited the emergence of party leaders and officials to glean insights into the discussions held behind bars.
As PTI leaders and others exited the jail premises, journalists rushed to cover their speeches and media talks, eager to provide the public with updates on the meeting with Khan, who is currently serving a prison term.
Journalists met with obstacles as police had placed barriers outside the area designated for the parking of news channels’ vehicles opposite Gate No. 5 of the jail.
Security personnel informed journalists that there would be no media coverage permitted outside the jail premises that day, instructing media teams to stand at a distance of two kilometers from the jail.
