This market will resolve to "Yes" if former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan is released from prison by December 31, 2026 at 11:59PM ET. Otherwise this market will resolve to "No". For purposes of this market, Imran Khan will be considered to have been released from prison only if he is not physically held in any Pakistani detention facility, including any prison, remand facility, or other place of formal custody, for a continuous period of at least 24 hours. A temporary release for medical treatment, a release on bail that is contingent on return to custody, or a release from one case while remaining in custody under another will not qualify. Release under house arrest, with travel restrictions, or with other non-custodial conditions following release will not prevent this market from resolving to "Yes". The resolution source for this market will be official information from the State of Pakistan or Imran Khan; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.Imran Khan remains incarcerated in Pakistan’s Adiala Jail under multiple convictions, including a 14-year corruption sentence and an additional 17-year term handed down in December 2025 on graft charges involving state gifts. These sentences, which he is actively serving despite acquittals in separate matters and ongoing appeals, create substantial legal barriers to release. Recent Supreme Court orders for hospital evaluation amid reported health concerns prompted only a brief transfer in August 2026 before authorities returned him to prison, reflecting government resistance and procedural challenges. Analysts cite limited incentives for the military and ruling coalition to facilitate early freedom, given Khan’s continued role as a political challenger and the persistence of over 100 related cases. PTI protests and family appeals for medical grounds have not altered the trajectory, supporting trader consensus around a low likelihood of release before the end of 2026.
