DASKA: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Deputy Secretary General Attaullah Tarar was released after being arrested for a brief period by police from Daska city of the Punjab province on Friday, ARY NEWS reported.
According to PML-N spokesperson Marriyum Aurangzeb, Attaullah Tarar was in Daska to run an election campaign of the party when he was arrested by the police.
“I consider that he is being abducted as he was arrested without a warrant,” she said adding that he was not wanted by police in any case.
Special Assistant to Chief Minister (SACM) Punjab Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan, however, denied the arrest and said that how a person who was never arrested could be released.
She said that Tarar forcefully entered the police van and tried to give an impression that he was being arrested by the police. “It was a drama staged by Tarar, who faked his arrest.”
