Islamabad: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has accepted the federal government's request seeking an in-camera hearing of the alleged 2008 Mumbai attacks mastermind Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi 's detention.

According to Dawn News, the application for the in-camera hearing to submit records of the case pertaining to Lakhvi's detention was filed by Additional Attorney General Afnan Karim Kundi.
Earlier, Lakhvi was granted bail by Islamabad's lower court in the six year old kidnapping case against surety bonds worth 2,00,000 rupees, but reports said that he was unlikely to be released as he was detained in Adiala Jail under Maintenance of Public Order (MPO) for a month.
However, Lakhvi may be released after completion of the time period for his detention at Adaila jail.
According to Dawn News, Lakhvi's counsel argued at the civil court of Mian Azhar Nadeem that his client was wrongly booked in the kidnapping case.
Lakhvi's counsel argued that the kidnapping case was registered to detain him following pressure from India after the Anti-Terrorism Court granted him bail.
