The District and Sessions Court Islamabad sent Awami Muslim League chief Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed to police custody on two-day physical remand.
Sheikh Rasheed, who was arrested last night, was presented in court where the prosecutor requested for 8 days physical remand of Sheikh Rasheed.
After the arguments of the lawyers were completed, the court had reserved its decision on the request of physical remand of Sheikh Rashid.
However, while passing the verdict, the District and Sessions Court of Islamabad approved the two-day physical remand of Sheikh Rasheed.
The court rejected the request of the prosecutor for 8 days physical remand.
It should be noted that a case has been registered against Sheikh Rasheed on the statement of conspiracy to kill Imran Khan on Asif Zardari.

The other non-bailable section 505 is for incitement to public which is punishable by 7 years imprisonment.
It should be noted that Awami Muslim League chief and former interior minister Sheikh Rasheed was arrested last night. Arms and liquor were recovered from their possession, after which they were transferred to Abpara police station in Islamabad.
