Former ISI chief Lt General (retd) Faiz Hamid has been taken into custody as the military initiated a court-martial, the army’s media wing said on Monday.
Top City Islamabad, also known as Top City 1 Islamabad, is a prestigious residential project located in the capital city of Pakistan. Spanning across a vast area and developed by Kunwar Moeez Khan Constructions, this high-end venture offers luxurious housing options to discerning individuals.
On May 12, 2017, the Pakistan Rangers and officials of the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) raided the office of Top City and the residence of Moeez Khan and took away valuables, including gold and diamond ornaments and money, in connection with a purported terrorism case.
The petition further stated that Lt-Gen Faiz Hameed’s brother Sardar Najaf mediated and tried to resolve the issue. After his acquittal, the petition claimed, Gen Hameed contacted Moeez Khan through the latter’s cousin — a brigadier in the army — to arrange a meeting.
The petition claimed that during the meeting, Gen Hameed told the petitioner that he would return some of the items taken away during the raid except for 400 tola gold and cash.
As per the petition, former ISI officials Irtaza Haroon, Sardar Najaf, Wasim Tabish, Zahid Mehmood Malik, and Mohammad Munir were also “involved in the illegal takeover of the housing society”.
