Richard Grenell, adviser to US President-elect Donald Trump, demanded that the Pakistani government release the jailed former prime minister Imran Khan.
Grenell made this demand in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter.
Retweeting a post on PTI’s protest, Grenell wrote on X, “Release Imran Khan!”
PTI leader Zulfi Bukhari thanked Grenell for speaking out for Imran Khan.
Grenell served as US ambassador to Germany in the last tenure of Donald Trump. He has also served as acting director of the national intelligence.
Imran Khan was arrested on August 5, 2023, and he has been in jail since. Currently, he is being kept in Rawalpindi's Adiala Jail.
