KARACHI:
A central leader of Pasban and his son were taken into Rangers’ custody in a pre-dawn raid in Federal B Area, officials claimed Monday.
Pasban-i-Pakistan is a socio-political group that once had ties with the Jamaat-i-Islami.
It has challenged the formation of military courts in the Supreme Court of Pakistan and has also demanded that Karachi be made a separate province.
According to the party and the family, Rangers personnel raided the house of Usman Moazzam Siddiqui, the general secretary of Pasban, in Federal B Area’s Samanabad locality late on Sunday night and took him and his younger son, Muhammad Siddiqui, into custody.
