QUETTA: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Senator Azam Swati was handed over to the police on a five-day remand in the case of creating chaos, according to a report on Sunday.

Swati was presented in the court of Duty Magistrate Abdul Sattar Bugti. The court handed PTI senator over to the police on a 5-day remand in the case. The PTI leader was arrested for the second time in the same case over a month after he secured post-arrest bail from a court in the capital city.

On Friday, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Senator Azam Swati was arrested by Balochistan police. He was taken to Quetta by Balochistan Police and was kept in Kuchlak jail, Quetta. Balochistan police had earlier requested to arrest the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Senator Azam Swati.

PTI chairman and former prime minister Imran Khan demanded the immediate release of Azam Swati. In his series of Tweets, Imran Khan condemned the ‘vengeful’ manner in which the senator is being treated as shocking and condemnable.

“He was moved to PIMS early morning after suffering severe chest pains and breathing issues. While test results were awaited, Quetta police got him discharged and took him away endangering his life.”
