LAHORE: Senior journalist and anchorperson Imran Riaz Khan was barred from boarding a flight to Dubai at Lahore airport Friday morning.
The defiant journalist, who was recently released on bail by the Lahore High Court (LHC) after he was arrested earlier this month in multiple cases related to treason and incitement of violence, reached the Allama Iqbal International Airport.
He wanted to fly to Dubai to take medical tests as his doctors believe that he was given something suspicious to eat during detention that could be dangerous for him. “I had to take some tests. So, I can prove what has been attempted but stopped at airport,” Khan said in a tweet.
