Reports say Azam Swati has been shifted to some undisclosed place after arrest from outside jail
TAXILA: (UrduPoint/Pakistan Point News-Nov 5th, 2024) Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader and former Federal minister Azam Swati was re-arrested by Taxila Police immediately following his release from District Jail Attock.
Swati, who had been incarcerated in Attock Jail, was granted bail just a day earlier by the Islamabad Anti-Terrorism Court.
However, as soon as he stepped outside the jail, Taxila Police took him back into custody and transported him to an undisclosed location.
The re-arrest is linked to a case registered at the Taxila police station under case number 2311, which includes 20 separate charges.
Earlier, the IHC had set aside his physical remand and later a lower court ordered the police to release him.
