ISLAMABAD: An Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) on Tuesday granted police 13 days’ physical remand of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) Islamabad Deputy Chief Qari Iftikhar Hussain and another accused in connection with two cases.
Police produced two accused, Iftikhar Hussain and Rafaqat, before the Accountability Court judge Abul Hasanat Zulquarnain for obtaining their physical remand in two cases registered under terrorism charges.
Police have registered two cases against JUI-F’s Islamabad deputy chief and Rafaqat at Sangjani and Industrial Area police stations.
During the hearing, the investigation officers (IOs) of the cases told the court that the accused had clashed with police personnel and allegedly confined residents inside residential blocks. They requested the court to grant a 30-day physical remand of each suspect to conduct further investigations and arrest other individuals allegedly involved in the incidents.
The court, after hearing the arguments, handed over the accused on a 13-day physical remand to the police.
