The Islamabad High Court on Monday issued a notice to the Ministry of Interior and the federal government and sought a response on Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan’s request for security.

IHC Chief Justice Aamir Farooq heard Imran’s plea which was filed following the “threatening” remarks made by Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah.

During the hearing, Justice Farooq inquired whether Imran is being provided security as a former prime minister. The PTI chief’s lawyer Advocate Faisal Farid replied that Imran’s security had been withdrawn.

Justice Farooq asked what the standard operating procedures are for providing security in the case of someone who has received threats to their life.

He further said that former chief justice of Pakistan Saqib Nisar had withdrawn many security details.

However, he added that the ex-CJP had also said that security can be provided if someone’s life is in danger. “Check if those SOPs are still in the field or not,” said Justice Farooq.

Advocate Farid told the court that the alleged threats are being made by those under whom the police function.
