Imran’s nephew Hassan Niazi sent on 2-day physical remand
Hassaan Khan Niazi, nephew of PTI Chairman Imran Khan, was re-arrested in a separate case on Monday when he was leaving the Federal Judicial Complex (FJC) after securing pre-arrest bail in three cases.
On Tuesday, Islamabad judicial magistrate Abbas Shah announced the reserved verdict and sent Hassan Niazi on two day physical remand.
The judge rejected the seven day physical remand of ICT Police and granted only two days physical remand.
Mr Niazi had obtained bail from the Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) in cases registered against him and other PTI supporters in connection with violence that took place on Feb 28 and March 18 when Mr Khan appeared in the FJC.
The judge confirmed Mr Niazi’s bail in two cases registered on Feb 28 and granted him pre-arrest interim bail in the FIR registered with the Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) on March 18 when Mr Khan was supposed to be indicted by a trial court in the Toshakhana case.
Due to rioting outside the main entrance to the FJC, trial court judge Zafar Iqbal was left with no option but to defer the indictment and marked Mr Khan’s attendance while the former prime minister sat in his vehicle parked outside the complex
