A day after his arrest, PML-N Punjab president MNA Rana Sanaullah Khan was sent to jail on Tuesday on 14-day judicial remand by a district court in Lahore.
Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) officials presented the PML-N leader and five other suspects — Akram, Omer Farooq, Amir Rustum, Usman Ahmed and Sibtain Khan — before judicial magistrate Ahmad Waqas. All six suspects were sent to jail on judicial remand.
The PML-N leader’s lawyer said that ANF had arrested Sanaullah after making a political case.
Ahead of Sanaullah’s appearance before the court, strict security arrangements were made. A large contingent of police was positioned inside and outside the court. All routes to the court were closed with containers and barbed wires.
On Monday, Sanaullah was arrested in what is said to be a narcotics case involving proscribed outfits.
The PML-N termed the government’s move to be “worst example of political victimization” and warned that such tactics to push the opposition against the wall would backfire.
