Ex-GB CM Khalid Khurshid gets prison custody after ATC hearing
Judge Abul Hasanat Muhammad Zulqarnain refused investigators bid for temporary police custody in the Aabpara file tied to the PTI rally of 26 November and directed prison custody instead.
An Islamabad ATC on Saturday placed former GB chief minister Khalid Khurshid in prison under judicial remand.
Police had sought temporary investigative custody in an Aabpara station file linked to the PTI rally of 26 November; the bench refused.
He appeared with KP Assembly Speaker Babar Saleem Swati; PTI said the detention took place on 11 October at Speaker House, Peshawar.
His son Hanifullah moved the Peshawar High Court to locate his father and protect Speaker House video recordings.
In December 2024 a GB ATC had already imposed a 34-year term and a Rs600,000 fine in a separate matter.
