Several pro-Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) accounts and some media outlets shared a video on Thursday across social media platforms that allegedly showed PTI founder Imran Khan’s sisters Noreen and Uzma Khanum after their release from Kot Lakhpat jail. However, the video is old from August 2026. Noreen and Uzma Khan were detained in Lahore in September 2026, amid reports of a crackdown on the PTI ahead of its September 27 countrywide protest and march to Islamabad, which the party had called to demand Imran’s release from jail and mobilise people for the supremacy of the Constitution. On Thursday the two sisters were released from Kot Lakhpat jail following the withdrawal of their extended detention orders. How it started On Nov 12, a pro-PTI account posted a video of Imran’s two sisters. The caption of the post read: “Most important. Noreen Khan and Uzma Khan have been released.” The post did not specify whether the video was from or after their release from jail or not. The post gathered 132,584 views. The PTI also shared the same video on its official account a few hours later as well, with the following caption: “Long live the bloodline of Shaukat Khanum.” The post garnered 105,164 views. PTI MPA Nadia Farooq Khar also shared the video on her TikTok account. Media outlets ARY News and Independent Urdu also shared the same video on TikTok. Various other users also shared the video clip, as can be seen here, here, and here. Methodology A fact-check was initiated to verify the viral claim due to its virality and keen public interest in the release of the two sisters from jail. A reverse image search traced the source of the viral video to a clip shared by a person on TikTok, dated August 10, 2026. The caption of the clip reads: “Honoured to welcome Uzma Khanum and Noreen Niazi, sisters of former Prime Minister Imran Khan, to our shop. It was a pleasure meeting them and having them visit us. Their presence made the day truly special.” As per the description, the video was from a visit to the TikTok user’s shop and not their release from jail. Fact-check: Misleading The claim that a viral video shows the release of Noreen Niazi and Uzma Khan from Kot Lakhpat jail is misleading. The video dates back to August 2026 and shows their visit to a shop.
