ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s former PM Imran Khan and his close aide Shah Mahmood Qureshi will continue to remain in jail till October 10 as a special court on Tuesday extended for the third time their judicial remand in a case related to the alleged disclosure of state secrets.
Khan was arrested last month after a case was filed against him for allegedly violating the Official Secrets Act by disclosing a secret diplomatic cable (cipher) sent by the country’s embassy in Washington last year in March. Judge Abul Hasnat Zulqarnain conducted the proceedings inside the high security Attock Jail where the former PM has been detained since August 5. Qureshi was presented before the special court at the Federal Judicial Complex in Islamabad.
