Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi reached the Islamabad High Court on Friday morning after a 15-hour sit-in outside Adiala Jail, only to be told that Chief Justice Sarfaraz Dogar had refused to meet him. "We received a message from the Chief Justice stating that he cannot meet us," Afridi told the media.

The sit-in was staged to protest repeated denial of meetings with incarcerated former prime minister Imran Khan, despite court orders.

Afridi said he had exhausted all options. "I have exhausted all constitutional and legal avenues. Despite yesterday's court order, neither the other leaders nor I were allowed to meet the founder." He warned that if courts could not enforce their orders, "the country will fall into the rule of the jungle".
