Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Aliya Hamza has been taken into custody, marking another high-profile arrest amid the government’s continued crackdown on the opposition party.
The arrest took place on Friday, though details surrounding the charges or the circumstances leading to her detention remain unclear. Party sources confirmed her arrest and strongly condemned the move, calling it part of a broader strategy to suppress political dissent.
Aliya Hamza, a former Member of the National Assembly and a prominent PTI spokesperson, has been vocal in her criticism of the current government, particularly on issues related to civil liberties and political victimization.
PTI officials have demanded her immediate release, warning that arbitrary arrests of opposition leaders are eroding democratic norms in the country.
