ISLAMABAD:

An anti-terrorism court (ATC) on Saturday rejected the police's request for physical remand of former Gilgit-Baltistan chief minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Khalid Khurshid and sent him to jail on a 14-day judicial remand.

Khurshid, who was arrested by the federal police, was produced before ATC Judge Abul Hasnat Muhammad Zulqarnain. The police had sought a 30-day physical remand, but the court rejected the request and ordered that he be sent to jail on judicial remand.

A case has been registered against Khurshid at Islamabad's Aabpara police station.
