ISLAMABAD
A district and sessions court in Islamabad has sent back Murree Police, which had arrived in the federal capital for seeking the transit remand of senior politician and Awami Muslim League (AML) President Sheikh Rasheed.
The court directed the police to first follow the proper procedure before asking for the transit remand of Sheikh Rashid.
Judicial Magistrate Umar Shabbir told the police party that first of all the application would be filed before the sessions judge and when the latter would mark him, he would hear the case.
It is pertinent to mention here that an application was filed at the Aabpara police station in Islamabad for the registration of a case against Rashid for making allegations against former president Asif Ali Zardari. According to the plaintiff, the AML chief claimed that Asif Ali Zardari had hired a “group of terrorists” to target PTI Chairman and former premier Imran Khan.
He stated that Sheikh Rashid’s accusations were part of a conspiracy and intended to create issues for Zardari and his family.
