PTI Leader Shireen Mazari Who Was Rearrested Despite Release Orders Finally Released

Published on

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader and former minister for human rights Shireen Mazari was released from jail after her daughter Imaan Mazari, who had alleged that she was manhandled at a police station where her mother was being held, filed a habeas corpus petition in Islamabad High Court (IHC). The former minister was rearrested by police yesterday shortly after her release from Adiala Jail.

PTI leaders Shireen Mazari and Senator Falak Naz were rearrested soon after they were released from Rawalpindi’s Adiala Jail on Islamabad High Court’s (IHC) directives that had declared their arrest under MPO unlawful. However, the police rearrested the leaders.

According to Shireen Mazari’s daughter Imaan Zainab Mazari-Hazir, she was unaware of the whereabouts of her mother after she was rearrested last night. She also filed a habeas corpus petition through her counsel in Islamabad High Court. She had also alleged that she was manhandled at a police station. She had also accused police of torturing the former minister.

Shireen Mazari was arrested along with several PTI leaders in connection with violent protests following the arrest of party chairman Imran Khan.
