Islamabad standoff: ATC extends Kanwal’s remand for two days
ISLAMABAD: Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) here on Monday granted two-day physical remand of Kanwal, the wife of the main accused in the Islamabad standoff Malik Sikandar, who had held the capital city hostage for 6 hours, Geo News reported.

Police presented Kanwal in the ATC after her seven-day remand expired today. Police told the court that the accused was aware of her husband’s planning but she is giving misleading statements.

Therefore, police pleaded to extend her physical remand for three days to unearth the facts but the court granted only two days.
