EFE-EPA\/SOHAIL SHAHZAD<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Draped in a white shawl and veil, Bibi addressed supporters, urging them to march to Islamabad\u2019s iconic D-Chowk and stage a sit-in until Khan was freed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The journey to Islamabad was fraught with challenges. Protesters faced government barricades and a heavy barrage of tear gas. Bibi\u2019s vehicle was closely guarded by demonstrators who saw her as a symbol of resistance amid the absence of other PTI leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the route, she blew kisses to the crowd, who chanted, \u201cKhan Tere Jan Nisar, Beshumar Beshumar\u201d (Khan, countless people are ready to sacrifice their lives for you).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy children and brothers, you must stand with me,\u201d she implored in one of her speeches. \u201cBut even if you don\u2019t, I will still stand firm.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Political analysts viewed the moment as his debut in Pakistani politics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hours after protesters reached Islamabad, the government cut power and water supplies before allegedly opening fire to disperse the crowd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to eyewitness Ilyas Hussain, who was selling burgers at the protest site, chaos ensued as Bibi\u2019s truck was set on fire. Everyone, including her, fled to safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PTI claimed over 20 protesters were killed, with hundreds missing, while the government denied fatalities and blamed Bibi for the violence, accusing her of refusing to relocate the protest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bibi\u2019s unexpected leadership and resilience have surprised many, given her previous reputation as a hidden spiritual guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Khan, who met her in 2015, often sought her counsel during his political career. A PTI insider credited her with transforming Khan from a playboy to a devout Muslim and believer in Sufism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Bibi played an important role in transforming Khan,&#8221; the source told EFE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The couple married in 2018 in a private ceremony, and Khan\u2019s electoral victory that year deepened his reliance on her spiritual guidance. Despite widespread criticism from opponents accusing her of black magic, she remained a key figure in Khan\u2019s life and political journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bibi\u2019s emergence as a leader has drawn comparisons to iconic figures like Benazir Bhutto, who advocated for her husband during his imprisonment; Kulsoom Nawaz, who rallied during Nawaz Sharif\u2019s incarceration; and Nusrat Bhutto, who led her party after Zulfikar Ali Bhutto\u2019s imprisonment in the 1970s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Born Bushra Riaz Watto, she was first married to Khawar Maneka in 1989. She has five children from her first marriage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After marrying Imran Khan, she adopted the name Bushra Khan but is widely referred to as Bushra Bibi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Known for her modesty, she has always covered her face with a veil and draped herself in a long scarf. Only a few of her photographs have surfaced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Pakistan\u2019s political turmoil unfolds, Bibi might have begun a new chapter in her journey\u2014from spiritual guide to a political symbol of resistance.
