Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Rana Sanaullah was sent to prison on a 14-day judicial remand by a anti-narcotics court in Lahore on Tuesday.

Sanaullah’s remand came following his arrest after the discovery of a large stash of contraband in his vehicle on Monday.

In the hearing of the case today, the Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) requested for a remand for the PML-N leader.

Earlier according to Superintendent of Police (SP) Security Faisal Shahzad, a security plan was devised for Sanaullah’s court appearance, with more than 400 anti-riot force personnel deployed around the city.

On Monday, Sanaullah was arrested by the Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) from near the Sukheke area in Punjab.

Sanaullah, a member of the National Assembly (MNA) and president of the PML-N’s Punjab wing, was said to have been arrested in a drug-related case, with the ANF officials telling Geo News he was arrested while travelling with his guards to a meeting from Faisalabad to Lahore.
