Former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan has adjusted to life in the high-security Attock District Jail, according to reports from his legal team. Khan, aged 70, shared some interesting revelations with his lawyers, stating that he is pleased with the change in his status after the suspension of his conviction in the Toshakhana corruption case. He has now been granted additional facilities, including access to a pencil and paper for writing.

"Going behind bars is a small thing, I'm ready to give up my life for this cause."

During his time in jail, Khan saw himself in a mirror for the first time and shaved for the first time since his incarceration. He has completed reading his Islamic books and has requested writings on political history from his legal team. It has been reported that Khan has been provided with a TV set, although he usually does not watch it. The TV only airs the state-run PTV channel. However, he expressed disappointment over the Supreme Court rejecting his petition challenging what he believes to be "political victimization" and denial of his right to a fair trial.

Khan's lawyer, Salman Safdar, has requested that his client's trial be conducted in a regular court with access granted to the general public to ensure fairness and justice. Safdar has also challenged the notification from the law ministry expressing no objection to a trial in jail. He argues that this notification is illegal and against the principles of a fair trial and the proceedings guaranteed under Article 10-A of the Constitution. Khan was initially sent to jail on August 5 after being convicted in the Toshakhana case. However, his sentence was suspended by the Islamabad High Court on August 29, ordering his release. Despite this, a special court established to try him for the violation of the official secret act decided to remand him in jail until September 13.
