LAHORE: PTI leader Azhar Mashwani returned home on Friday, he announced on Twitter, more than a week after he was picked up.
“Alhumdullilah I have just returned home safe and sound,” Mashwani tweeted. “Your prayers, efforts, and support in these eight days have left us forever indebted.”
Mashwani added that he prayed that other “captive workers” also return home soon and they get to break their fasts with their families.
The Lahore High Court ordered the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to recover and produce Mashwani in court on April 3. Justice Aalia Neelum had passed the order on a habeas corpus petition filed by Mazharul Hassan, Mashwani’s brother.
AHe was picked up last week, apparently on charges of criticising the Punjab police and the caretaker government for allegedly using high-handed tactics against party workers.
The arrest of Mashwani, a former focal person for digital media in Punjab, prompted PTI chief Imran Khan to say, “enough is enough”, as he accused the authorities of abducting the party activist.
