Pakistan's former intelligence chief Faiz Hameed has been indicted on charges of engaging in political activities, misuse of authority and government resources and violation of the Official Secrets Act, the military said on Tuesday.
The retired lieutenant general has been in military custody since the opening of court martial proceedings against him in August.
The statement said Hameed would also be investigated in connection with attacks on scores of Pakistani military installations in May 2023 by supporters of jailed former prime minister Imran Khan.
Khan and dozens of his party leaders and supporters were last week indicted by an anti-terrorism court on charges of inciting the supporters to assault the military installations. Khan and his associates have denied the charges.
Hamid served under Khan as ISI chief from 2019 to 2021. Their ties caused tensions between Khan and army chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa that led to the fall of the former international cricket star from power in 2022, analysts say.
