Arsalan Taj Hussain, a provincial lawmaker of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, was detained from his home in the port city, according to a PTI provincial spokesperson.
Arsalan Taj, a PTI lawmaker and the general secretary of the party’s Karachi chapter, was detained by Gulshan Iqbal police. CCTV footage shows law enforcement officers transporting MPA in a white saloon car.
His party members, on the other hand, claimed that a provincial lawmaker from PS-102 Karachi East 4 had been arrested for criticizing Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader Asif Zardari and Sindh Information Minister Sharjeel Memon.
Imran Khan-led party maintained that cops raided and ransacked Taj’s residence. Other PTI lawmakers including Khurram Sher Zaman and Raja Azhar residences, were also raided but they dodged the arrest.
PTI leaders claimed that Arsalan Taj Hussain has moved to an unknown location while families of political leaders are being harassed.
