Why Pakistan is charging its former top spy Faiz Hameed with treason

Lt Gen (Retd) Faiz Hameed, Pakistan's former ISI chief, has been charged with political interference, compromising state security, and misuse of authority. His arrest and trial reflect allegations of involvement in the 2023 protests, land grabbing, and confiscation of valuables. This marks a significant shift in military accountability and is linked to political tensions with ex-PM Imran Khan. Observers see this as a turning point in civil-military relations, with broader implications for Pakistan’s political stability.
