The cybercrime wing of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has filed an application in the Islamabad High Court (IHC) seeking cancellation of PTI leader Azam Swati’s bail in the controversial tweets case.
Sources said that FIA approached the IHC after Swati made controversial remarks against security institutions during an event in Rawalpindi.
They added that IHC Chief Justice Aamer Farooq would hear the case on Tuesday (today).
It was further said that the transcript of Swati’s controversial speech was appended with the application.
Earlier, FIA cybercrime wing had registered a case against the PTI leader. He was released on bail by the IHC.
The court while granting the bail had stated that an application for bail cancellation could be filed if Swati repeated the crime.
In November last year, Pemra had prohibited broadcast and rebroadcast of Swati’s speeches, news conferences and his media coverage, including as a guest in talk shows, statements or tickers, on all satellite TV channels.
