Wife of jailed ex-Pakistan PM Imran Khan says he's well

He was then barred from politics for five years, preventing him from contesting an upcoming election.

"We just talked to her after she came out after about a 30 minute meeting, who said to let everyone know that he was well," he said. Khan, 70, has been at the centre of political turmoil since he was ousted last year as prime minister in a no-confidence vote, raising concerns about Pakistan's stability as it grapples with an economic crisis.

Khan, who has denied any wrongdoing, was arrested at his Lahore house and is currently in a prison near Islamabad where his legal team and party say living conditions were the worst that a former prime minister has been kept in.
