Former ISI chief Lt Gen Faiz Hameed has been arrested by the Pakistan Army and is facing a Field General Court Martial on charges of corruption related to the Top City housing scheme. The arrest follows an internal probe prompted by the Supreme Court of Pakistan, which noted the serious nature of the allegations that could undermine the federal government and military institutions. Hameed, who served as ISI director general from 2019 to 2021, is accused of orchestrating a raid on the offices and residence of Top City’s owner and engaging in corrupt activities. This move is unprecedented in Pakistan, as it marks the first time a former ISI chief is facing court martial. Observers suggest the arrest may also be linked to Hameed's close ties with former Prime Minister Imran Khan and the broader political dynamics within Pakistan's military and political landscape.
