Imran Khan’s medical reports do not hint at use of alcohol and cocaine: NAB

The medical reports of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan with National Accountability Bureau (NAB) do not hint at alcohol and cocaine use, Ansar Abbasi has reported for The News.

The source quoted by the reporter claimed to have reviewed the medical records, and said that Imran Khan’s health was normal.

He said that Imran’s blood and urine samples were taken while he was in NAB’s custody.

“The medical reports as available with NAB do not endorse what the health minister alleged,” the news report quoted a source.

Imran Khan on Tuesday sent a Rs10 Billion defamation notice to Health Minister Abdul Qadir Patel for sharing details about an alleged medical test conducted during his arrest, stating that the PTI chief had faked his fracture and that he is mentally unstable.

Imran Khan asked the minister through the legal notice to, “retract his statements in the same mode and manner in which he made them in the first place”.

The private medical reports of the tests that the government is said to have conducted on PTI leader Imran Khan earlier this month while he was under arrest were made public on Friday.

The reports stated that Imran Khan’s mental stability was under question and that while no leg fractures were found, there was evidence of alcohol and an illicit substance in his urine.
