Notably, the PTI leader was arrested from Bani Gala when he was on his way to meet PTI Chief Imran Khan and the police claimed that the arrest was made over the charges of sedition.

He was initially remanded to the police for two days and after that, the police filed a petition for an extension to which another 48-hours long remand was granted yesterday.

The PTI leadership expressed their grave concerns over the extension in remand and maintained that the remand was given for the custodial torture of Gill.
