Federal authorities are reportedly considering transferring Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leaders wanted by Islamabad police to the federal capital and pursuing legal proceedings against arrested party leaders in multiple cases, according to sources.
The reported development comes amid heightened political tensions following the detention of several PTI leaders and the federal government’s recent actions in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
According to the sources, authorities are considering moving PTI leaders wanted by Islamabad police to the capital to face proceedings in cases registered against them. The proposed action also includes submitting challans, or police investigation reports, in various cases involving arrested leaders.
The sources said some of the leaders are reportedly wanted in different cases because they have been declared proclaimed offenders or have not obtained bail. However, the information provided does not identify all the leaders who could be transferred or specify the cases involved.
Separately, Dawn reported on Oct. 13 that several PTI leaders were in preventive custody following the federal government’s intervention in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Minister of State for Interior Talal Chaudhry said those facing cases would be charged and tried, while others would be released.
The reported possibility of transferring wanted leaders to Islamabad remains subject to official confirmation. Further details about the individuals concerned, the cases involved and the timing of any transfer were not included in the information provided.
