Kashmiri lawyer Nabila Irshad—who had been arrested by the army in Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, and subsequently went missing—has been transferred to jail on judicial remand.
The Anti-Terrorism Court in Islamabad has ordered that Nabila Irshad, Chairperson of the Jammu and Kashmir Democratic Party, be sent to jail on judicial remand.
Judge Abul Hasnat Muhammad Zulqarnain issued this order during the hearing of the case.
Nabila Irshad had been arrested a few days earlier on suspicion of participating in a protest held at Islamabad’s F-10 Markaz.
Her lawyers maintain that she was not even present in Islamabad on the day of the protest; a bail application has also been filed on her behalf.
The court has issued a notice regarding the bail application and adjourned the hearing until tomorrow.
