Court rejects Zardari's application for treatment in Karachi

An accountability court rejected former president Asif Ali Zardari’s application seeking his transfer to Karachi for medical treatment on Tuesday.

Earlier today, the court extended Zardari and his sibling Faryal Talpur’s judicial remand till November 26 in the money laundering through fake bank accounts case.

According to details, the decision on the application was given by judge Azam Khan after the former president's lawyer completed his arguments.

The application stated that Zardari’s health is “worrisome” and he should be given permission to receive treatment of his choice, adding that he wants to be treated in Karachi.
