ISLAMABAD: On Monday, an anti-terrorism court (ATC) remanded human rights attorney Imaan Mazari into police detention in a case of “interference in state affairs”.
Police detained Imaan in the early hours of Sunday on suspicion of meddling in official matters.

After her one-day detention ended today, the female attorney was brought before the court. Imaan’s attorney announced at the beginning of the session that her client had been detained in two similar incidents.

The police are now asking for a 10-day detention of her client because they were unable to find anything during their 24-hour physical detention.

After hearing arguments, the ATC judge gave the police a three-day physical remand and the human rights attorney.

When Imaan Mazari first saw her mother Shireen Mazari, a former federal minister for human rights, on the court grounds, she started crying.
Imaan Mazari’s mother, Shireen Mazari, had earlier said that policewomen “in plain clothes” had stormed into their home and kidnapped her daughter in the early hours of Sunday night.

The security cameras, her daughter’s laptop, and smartphone, according to Mazari, were also taken by the authorities.
