In court, the New Town physical remand case will be heard first, followed by the case related to the GHQ attack. The judge mentioned that after hearing these two cases, he would consider the applications for physical remand in the six new cases against the founder of PTI.
Imran Khan has been arrested in three additional cases related to the PTI protest on September 28 in Rawalpindi. The police arrived at Adiala Jail for his arrest, and these cases are also registered under anti-terrorism provisions.
According to the prosecutor, the investigation in the New Town case has been completed, and therefore no further physical remand will be sought.
