Former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has expressed support for the military's internal accountability process involving former ISI Chief, Lt Gen (Retd) Faiz Hameed. Khan, who distanced himself from Hameed following reports of his court martial, deemed the process necessary during informal talks with journalists in Adiala Jail, Rawalpindi.

Hameed, who served as Director General of the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) from 2019 to 2021, was arrested on August 12 in connection with the Top City case. The allegations stem from a complaint by a private property developer accusing Hameed of misuse of official authority for personal gains.

Commenting on the case, Khan highlighted the importance of a thorough investigation into Hameed's alleged involvement in the controversial events following his arrest. Khan's remarks underscore his call for across-the-board military accountability, furthering the narrative of justice and transparency.
