Dr Uzma Khan and Noreen Niazi, sisters of incarcerated PTI founder Imran Khan, were released from jail following the withdrawal of their detention orders, PTI’s legal counsel, Rana Mudassar Umer, told Dawn on Thursday.

He told Dawn that the two had reached home. Dr Uzma and Noreen were detained in September ahead of a PTI protest call.
