The Pakistan Army has arrested and initiated the court martial of former ISI Director General, General (retd) Faiz Hameed, primarily over corruption allegations tied to the Top City housing society. The arrest followed a Supreme Court directive in response to a petition by Kunwar Moeez, the property’s owner. This is unprecedented—no ISI chief has ever been arrested, and no general has been detained for accountability other than for espionage charges. Hameed, known as a staunch ally of former Prime Minister Imran Khan, who is currently imprisoned, now faces serious scrutiny. For more on Hameed's arrest and its timing, tune in to this episode of New Wave Global with Rabia Mehmood and guest Raza Rumi, author and Editor-at-large of Naya Daur Media, New Wave Global, New Wave History, and The Friday Times. Rumi argues that Hameed must be held accountable for his role in amplifying extremism in the country.
