A district and sessions court sent the PTI leader on judicial remand for 14 days.


Islamabad: An Islamabad district and sessions court Tuesday rejected Awami Muslim League (AML) chief Sheikh Rashid’s post-arrest bail plea in a case pertaining to his alleged remarks against former president Asif Ali Zardari.
Sheikh Rashid is currently in custody after he accused the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari of hatching a plot to assassinate the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan.
Earlier, a district and sessions court sent the PTI leader on judicial remand for 14 days.
The court reserved its verdict after hearing from both the prosecution and Rashid's lawyers, but allowed the AML chief to sign his nomination papers for the upcoming NA-60 and NA-62 by-elections.
The hearing today was presided by Judicial Magistrate Umar Shabbir.
