Former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan’s judicial remand was extended till September 13 by a special court in a case related to the alleged disclosure of state secrets, dashing embattled former Pakistan prime minister’s hopes of quick release from jail despite being granted bail a day earlier in a corruption case.
As per PTI report, Judge Abual Hasnat Zulqarnain, who arrived at Attock jail in the Punjab province to conduct the hearing, issued the order in the case of the missing cipher, a classified state document that Khan had waved during a political rally ahead of his ouster from office last year.
The hearing of the case took place at high-security Attock District Jail following approval by the Ministry of Law and Justice amid security concerns expressed by the Interior Ministry.
