Imran Khan turns 74 in prison as Pakistan crisis deepens
Original: Imran Khan at 74: From cricket glory to a prison cell, Pakistan’s decades-old Military dictatorship continues
Imran Khan, Pakistan's former prime minister and 1992 cricket World Cup-winning captain, marked his 74th birthday while remaining imprisoned. Commentators are framing his trajectory from national sporting hero to jailed opposition leader as evidence of the military's enduring grip on Pakistani politics. His supporters continue to demand his release, arguing his detention shows the country's democratic institutions remain subordinate to the army.
Why now: His birthday has renewed attention on the former cricket star's imprisonment and Pakistan's ongoing political crisis.
