Islamabad ATC denies physical remand for Khalid Khurshid
An Islamabad anti-terrorism court sent the former Gilgit-Baltistan chief minister to jail on judicial custody after turning down a 30-day physical remand request in the November 26 protest case.
Islamabad’s anti-terrorism court rejected a police request for 30-day physical remand of former Gilgit-Baltistan chief minister Khalid Khurshid.
Judge Abul Hasnat Muhammad Zulqarnain ordered him into judicial custody in a case tied to the PTI’s November 26, 2024 protest.
The case was registered at Aabpara Police Station; Khurshid is president of PTI’s Gilgit-Baltistan chapter.
In a separate hearing, the same court discharged PTI workers held in two cases linked to the party’s recent long march.
Those workers had spent more than 40 days in custody while police sought more time for an identification parade.
