ISLAMABAD: In the “security breach” case, the Islamabad High Court (IHC) has placed renowned human rights attorney Imaan Mazari and her spouse, counsel Haadi Ali Chatha, under judicial detention.
Mazari and Chatha were represented in court by attorneys Qaiser Imam and Zainab Janjua, and IHC Chief Justice Aamer Farooq and Justice Saman Rafat Imtiaz heard the request against the couple’s physical remand.
The prosecutor read the court order and made the remand request during the hearings. The prosecutor then responded in the positive when the IHC CJ inquired if it was appropriate.
The accused were subsequently ordered to be placed in jail on judicial remand after the two-member panel quickly ruled that the previous physical remand was invalid.
