LAHORE: PTI founder Imran Khan’s article published in the foreign media did not come from jail, officials insisted.

Punjab Prisons Inspector General (IG) Farooq Nazir said that visitors to the jail were checked under SOPs and they come and leave empty-handed. “If an article had gone out of jail, big action would have been taken,” he added.
