Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chief Imran Khan's counsel Naeem Bokhari has suffered a head injury and multiple fractures after falling in an underground station in London.

PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry announced the news on Twitter and said Bokhari was in stable condition.

The fall "resulted in an injury to the head, as well as fractured ribs," his tweet said. 

Bokhari spoke to Geo News later where he elaborated on the injuries he suffered as a result of the fall. 

"I am badly hurt, my three ribs are broken and I have [internal] head injury and trauma to the ribs including backbone," he said.  

The counsel shared that he fell unconscious after he hit the pavement and woke up next morning in hospital. 

"[The] internal injury is causing a lot of pain, my left eye is totally blackened and I'm unable to move," he said, adding that his trip to the US had to be cancelled as a result. 

Imran Khan wished a speedy recovery to Bokhari. "Wishing Naeem Bokhari the best of health and a speedy recovery. My prayers, and the prayers of so many others, are with him," the PTI chairman tweeted. 

Bokhari, a prominent lawyer and television host, joined PTI in 2016. He represented the PTI chief in a high-profile disqualification case in the Supreme Court and also led the party's legal team in Panama Papers case against former prime minister Nawaz Sharif.
