Media was barred from entering the complex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The investigating officers of around 10 old drug cases in which suspect Pinky was declared proclaimed offender filed two separate applications before District and Sessions Judge (South) Zahoor Ahmed Hakro, seeking permission to produce her in court at the judicial complex inside the prison due to security concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The court allowed the applications and directed the area judicial magistrates to conduct proceedings regarding the suspect\u2019s remand inside prison only for today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At KCCI event, IGP defends strict security for alleged drug \u2018queenpin\u2019; says someone can harm her to derail investigations<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, when reporters reached the central prison to witness the court proceeding, police personnel barred them from entering the premises, saying they had received orders from \u201chigher authorities\u201d to restrict the entry of the media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pinky was brought in a convoy comprising six police mobiles and a prison vehicle. Police personnel deployed outside the prison for security were also seen checking each vehicle and asking if any media personnel were present in any of the police mobile vans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Later, court staffers told&nbsp;<em>Dawn<\/em>&nbsp;that the IOs produced the suspect before Judicial Magistrate Kalsoom Mustafa and JM Aasim Aslam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the proceedings, prosecutor Abbasi submitted that police required the suspect\u2019s remand to interrogate her regarding the source of supply, her network and to obtain information about her financial transactions as well as her modus operandi in drug trafficking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The defence counsel moved an application, claiming maltreatment at the hands of police regarding the suspect. Upon the defence\u2019s request, Judge Aslam directed the IO concerned to \u201ctreat the accused in accordance with the law\u201d. After hearing all sides, the both magistrates remanded the suspect in police custody for three days in 10 old drug cases and directed both IOs to produce her before the court along with a progress report at the next hearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>IGP vows transparency in cases against Pinky<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Inspector General of Police Javed Alam Odho on Tuesday&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dawn.com\/news\/2001505\/sindh-ig-vows-transparency-in-cases-against-anmol-alias-pinky-stretching-across-multiple-domains\">vowed&nbsp;<\/a>transparency in investigations into the Pinky case, noting that the probes stretched across multiple \u201cdomains\u201d,&nbsp;<em>Dawn.com<\/em>&nbsp;reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Responding to media queries at an event held at the Karachi Chambers of Commerce and Industry (KCCI), he said multiple agencies were involved in probing her alleged criminal activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThere are now different institutions involved [\u2026] so there will be transparency, and secondly, each [authority] will work under its domain,\u201d he affirmed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking about Pinky\u2019s allegedly selling drugs using \u201ccyberspace\u201d, the IGP said the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) was now \u201ca part of our team\u201d as well as \u201csensitive federal institutions\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Addressing the strict security during her court appearances, he emphasised that the police were keeping several \u201crisks\u201d in mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe nature of her business is such that there is a risk of many names emerging.
