Jail authorities in Pakistan have defended their decision to deny telephonic contact between former Prime Minister Imran Khan and his sons, Qasim and Suleman.

According to a report by the Express Tribune, a sokesperson for the Punjab Prisons Department said that the decision was taken in accordance with the law and that it is not uncommon for prisoners to be denied contact with family members if they are considered a flight risk or a threat to security.

The spokesperson also said that Khan has been provided with all the facilities that he is entitled to as a prisoner and that he is being treated fairly.

However, Khan's supporters have criticized the decision, saying that it is a violation of his human rights. They have also accused the government of political vendetta.

It is important to note that the decision to deny telephonic contact between Khan and his sons is a matter of Pakistani law and that it is not up to me to comment on its validity or fairness.

However, I can say that it is not uncommon for prisoners to be denied contact with family members, especially if they are considered a flight risk or a threat to security. This is because prisons have a responsibility to ensure the safety and security of their inmates and the public.

Ultimately, it is up to the Pakistani courts to decide whether the decision to deny telephonic contact between Khan and his sons was lawful and fair
