PTI declares action against Faiz Hameed an internal military matter

ISLAMABAD, AUG 12: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has labeled the action taken against Lieutenant General (R) Faiz Hameed as an internal matter of the Pakistan Army.

The former Director General of Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), Faiz Hameed, was recently taken into military custody, and a field court martial process has been initiated against him.

According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the Pakistan Army conducted a detailed inquiry into complaints against Hameed, following orders from the Supreme Court of Pakistan.

The investigation, related to the Top City case, led to the initiation of disciplinary proceedings under the Pakistan Army Act.

In response, PTI Chairman’s legal representative, Barrister Gohar, emphasized that the military’s actions are strictly internal. He stated that the Pakistan Army is a disciplined and organised institution with its own procedures for dealing with both serving and retired officers.

He further added that the army’s internal actions cannot be questioned by external entities.
