IMRAN KHAN'S COMPLETE LIFE STORY

Imran Khan was born on October 5, 1952 in the developed city of Lahore, Pakistan. His current age is 71 years and his height is 6 feet 2 inches. He studied at the Cathedral School and Aitchison College in Lahore and then at the Royal Grammar School Worcester in England where he also excelled in cricket. In 1972 he entered Keble College, Oxford, where he studied philosophy, politics and economics, graduating in 1975.

His father's name is Ikramullah Khan Niazi and mother's name is Shaukat Khanum. His mother died when he was Fourty three years old. He married a Twenty one year old girl, Jemima, and they had 2 sons in their Nine year marriage. One son's name is Salman Isa Khan and the other son's name is Qasim Khan.

Imran Khan married secondly in 2015, a female journalist who was a BBC weather reporter named Reham Khan to them, which lasted less than a year. After she got divorced, she alleged that she was harassed by her supporters and wrote a memoir. After that, Imran Khan married Bushra Bibi in 2018 which was his third marriage. His third marriage was a low-profile ceremony.

Imran Khan was a player of Pakistan cricket team. He is considered as one of the good captains of Pakistan cricket team. Imran Khan led Pakistan to win the World Cup in 1992. He was a rounder who started his career in cricket in 1971 and ended it in 1992. He played his last Test on 2 January 1992 against Sri Lanka and his last ODI on 25 March 1992 against England. He played a total of 88 Test matches and 175 ODI's in his career.

After 1992, Imran Khan remained in the eyes of Pakistani people as a Sympathizer. He analyzed a religious awakening, and adopted the Sufism of the elders and buried his old ideas. The specialized cancer hospital, completed in 1994, was named Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital after Imran Khan's mother, who died of cancer in 1985.

After his retirement from cricket, Imran Khan became strongly against government mismanagement and corruption in Pakistan. He founded his own political party, Pakistan Tahreek-e-Insaaf in 1996. In the following year's national elections, his newly formed party Pakistan Tahreek-e-Insaaf won less than 1 percent of the vote and failed to win any seats in the National Assembly. But in the 2002 elections, Pakistan Tahreek-e-Insaaf fared slightly better, and Imran Khan won a single seat.  Imran Khan said that Election Commission is responsible for vote rigging and low vote total of his party.

In October 2007, Imran Khan was among the group of politicians who resigned from the National Assembly in protest against the press.  In November, Imran Khan was briefly imprisoned during a crackdown on Musharraf's critics, prompting a state of emergency.  The Pakistan Tahreek-e-Insaaf condemned the martial law that ended in mid-December and boycotted the 2008 national elections to protest Musharraf's government.

Despite the Pakistan Tahreek-e-Insaaf struggles in the elections, Imran Khan's populist positions gained support, especially among the youth. Imran Khan continued his criticism of corruption and economic instability in Pakistan and opposed the Pakistani government's support for supporting the United States in fighting militants near the Afghan border. Imran Khan also launched a vigorous campaign against Pakistan's political and economic elite, and was therefore accused of being westernized and alienated from Pakistan's religious and cultural norms.

In the months leading up to the 2013 elections, Imran Khan and his party drew large crowds at rallies and gained the support of many veteran politicians from across Pakistan. Further evidence of Imran Khan's growing political popularity came in the form of a 2012 poll in which he was named Pakistan's most popular political figure.

A few days before the elections in May 2013, Imran Khan suffered head and back injuries when he fell off the stage at an election rally. He appeared on television from his hospital bed hours later to make a final appeal to his voters. Pakistan Muslim League-N got the most votes in these elections so far, but the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf still won less than half of the seats won by the Pakistan Muslim League-N under the leadership of Imran Khan.  Imran Khan accused PML-N of rigging the elections.

After their calls for an investigation failed, they and other opposition leaders called for four months of protests in late 2014 to pressure Nawaz Sharif to resign.

The protests failed to remove Nawaz Sharif, but suspicions of corruption grew when the Panama Papers linked his family to offshore holdings. Imran Khan then organized a new set of protests in late 2016 but called them off at the last minute after the Supreme Court agreed to launch an inquiry.

The investigation disqualified Nawaz Sharif from holding public office in 2017, and he was forced to resign from office. Meanwhile, it was also revealed that Imran Khan had offshore holdings, but in a separate case, the Supreme Court did not disqualify him.

Elections were held the following year in July 2018. Imran Khan ran on a platform of fighting corruption and poverty, even battling accusations that he was too aligned with the military establishment. The Pakistan Tahreek-e-Insaaf won more seats in the National Assembly, allowing Imran Khan to form an alliance with independent members of parliament. He became the Prime Minister on 18 August.

In August 2023, Imran Khan was convicted on corruption charges after a trial by the Election Commission in a Pakistani trial court. Imran Khan, who did not cooperate in the trial, was sentenced to three years in prison. In a pre-recorded message, he urged his supporters to protest peacefully. In light of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf crackdown, the reaction on the streets was muted. Imran Khan appealed against the court's decision and was retried weeks later and his sentence was suspended.

He nevertheless remained in custody while he was investigated about the diplomatic cipher in March 2022, and in October he was formally indicted on charges of disclosing classified material.

However, as the February 2024 elections approached, he continued to push for the return of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf to power. In December 2023, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf caused controversy when they used artificial intelligence to deliver a speech written by Imran Khan behind bars. A few days later, Imran Khan announced his intention to contest for the National Assembly in three constituencies, hoping that the appeal process would put his name on the ballot paper.

But he failed in this and he was removed from the presidency of the party and his party was disbanded. At this time Imran Khan has been sentenced in the Tosha Khana and Cipher case and he is in jail.  Candidates are participating in the election as an independent.
