Three officers of the Pakistan Armed Forces were dismissed from service after they were found guilty of breach of discipline, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Friday.
In a statement, the media wing of the military said that three officers of the rank of Major were awarded punishment on account of breach of discipline and misconduct, reports Geo News.
"Upon found guilty of charges levelled against them, all three dismissed from service while two also awarded rigorous imprisonment for two years each," the statement read.
The charges against the convicted officers included misuse of authority and involvement in illegal activities unbecoming of an officer, according to the ISPR.
