RAWALPINDI: Three more retired Pakistan army officers have been taken into custody for violating military discipline, according to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
The military's public relations wing revealed that these retired officers were detained in connection with court-martial proceedings involving former ISI chief, Lt. General (retired) Faiz Hameed.

The three officers were reportedly involved in coordinating between a political party and Lt. Gen. (retired) Faiz Hameed, with both brigadiers allegedly being close associates of Hameed, hailing from Chakwal.
Earlier, on August 13, former ISI chief Lt. Gen. Faiz Hameed was also taken into military custody, as confirmed by the ISPR.
