Islamabad High Court recently summoned the interior secretary in a case pertaining to 41 Pakistani prisoners who were awarded sentences in drug smuggling cases in Sri Lanka recently.

The court had already sought a report from the interior ministry on whether the anti-narcotics laws of Pakistan and Sri Lanka had similarities, reports The News International.

Deputy Attorney General Raja Khalid told the newspaper the matters of prisoners were sent to Anti-Narcotics Forces magistrates.

Fifteen cases were sent to magistrate Shaista Kundi while the other 26 were sent to the other court, he added.
