Federal Minister for Interior Chaudhary Nisar Ali Khan on Friday expressed concern over the arrest of an anchor of a private television channel ARY News, Iqrar-ul-Hasan in Karachi.

In a statement, the minister said federal and provincial governments should learn a lesson and get guidance instead of showing an annoyance on such a sting operation.

He said Iqrarul Hassan is active and efficient journalist but he was arrested rather than being appreciated for pointing out security lapses in the Sindh Assembly.

Nisar directed the interior secretary to contact the Sindh Inspector General of Police and settle the matter amicably.
