Pak Opposition leader Fawad Chaudhry sent on 14-day judicial remand


Islamabad, Jan 30 (PTI) : A court in Islamabad on Monday sent Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf party's senior leader Fawad Chaudhry to jail on a 14-day judicial remand in a case related to alleged incitement of violence against a constitutional institution.

Chaudhry, 52, a close aide of PTI party chief and former prime minister Imran Khan, was last week arrested after a case was registered against him in Kohsar police station of Islamabad for threatening the top officials of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP).

 He was presented before Judicial Magistrate Waqas Ahmed Raja after the end of his second two-day physical remand granted to the police for investigation. The magistrate rejected the police plea to extend his physical remand for a third time.
