Imran Khan, Pakistan’s former prime minister, has formally applied to run for chancellor of the University of Oxford in Britain from his prison cell, a close aide announced Sunday. Khan served as Pakistan’s leader from 2018 until April 2022, when he was ousted through an opposition parliamentary no-confidence vote he alleges was planned by the powerful Pakistani military. "As per Imran Khan’s instructions, his application form to Oxford University Chancellor Election 2024 has been submitted,” Sayed Zulfiqar Bukhari said on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter.
