SC orders security for Rehman Malik

The Supreme Court on Thursday ordered the Interior Ministry to provide security to former interior minister Rehman Malik.
The orders were issued by a five-member larger bench, headed by Justice Anwar Zaheer Jamali while hearing Malik’s intra-court appeal.
Malik requested the court that he has been receiving threats from militants and his life was in danger. He said that the Taliban had placed a bounty on him and the court should provide him security.
On this, the court ordered the Interior Ministry to provide him security and adjourned the hearing until Friday (today).
Later, talking to reporters outside the Supreme Court, Malik said he told the court that the Taliban had announced a Rs 500 million head money on him and he should be provided security equivalent to that of former president Pervez Musharraf.
