ISLAMABAD: After the trial courts, including the anti-terrorism court of Islamabad, issued non-bailable warrants for the arrest of Tehreek-e-Labaik Ya Rasool Allah (TLYR) leaders and activists, police teams have left for different cities and towns of Punjab to arrest the nominated individuals in connection with the Faizabad sit-in of last year, according to a report by a private media outlet.
As many as 28 cases have been registered against Khadim Hussain Rizvi and 480 other leaders and activists of the religious group in the police stations of Industrial Area, Kural, Khanna and Aabpara in Islamabad.
