LAHORE: A judicial magistrate on Wednesday remanded PML-N MNA Javed Latif in five-day police custody in a case of inciting people against the state institutions.

Earlier, CIA police sought his 14-day physical remand to complete investigation.

Opposing the remand, Javed Latif’s counsel argued that the case was politically motivated. The counsel said the FIR carried allegations of anti-state narrative and neither any state institution or the government lodged a complaint in this regard, he added.
