ISLAMABAD: The court on Monday (Today) handed over accused policemen Samiullah and Tariq who gunned down a resident of Mardan in Islamabad to police on a two-day remand.
The accused policemen surrendered after which legal investigation into the matter was launched.
Judicial Magistrate Amir Khalil approved physical remand of an official of the Eagle Squad, Samiullah and sent him into police custody.
Appearing before the magistrate, police requested the physical remand of the accused for interrogation.
