Several top PTI leaders were taken into custody from outside the Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi as they went there to meet their incarcerated founder, Imran Khan, the party said on Tuesday.
“Absolutely shameful! Omar Ayub Khan, Shibli Faraz, Asad Qaiser, Ahmed Bhachar, Sahibzada Hamid Raza have been arrested outside Adiala Jail, for simply exercising their right to meet with Imran Khan, as permitted by law,” the PTI said in a post on X.
“This should alarm anyone who values the rule of law, as it shows how basic freedoms are being trampled upon,” it added.
Those the PTI said were arrested included National Assembly Opposition Leader Omar Ayub Khan, Senate Opposition Leader Shibli Faraz, Punjab Assembly Opposition Leader Malik Ahmed Bhachar and ally Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC) MNA Sahibzada Hamid Raza.
The PTI also shared a video, which showed National Assembly Opposition Leader Omar Ayub Khan being seated in the backseat of a white Toyota vehicle amid high security. A police van could also be seen in the video.
