Goldsmith said her updates on Khan’s treatment by Pakistani authorities and his ongoing legal challenges “hardly reach the public” and urged Musk to intervene regarding what she described as “visibility filtering” on her account.

“A personal plea to @elonmusk My two sons have not been allowed to see or speak to their father Imran Khan who has been held unlawfully for 22 months of solitary confinement.

Asking Musk to fix the visibility filtering on her account, she added: “You promised free speech, not ‘speech but no one hears it’.”
