The police say they have raided the house of Izhar in a bid to recover the cell phone of the PTI leader but his driver's wife and relative created hurdles in the official work.
ISLAMABAD: (UrduPoint/UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News-August 11th, 2022) Police on Thursday took wife of PTI leader Shahbaz Gill's driver into custody during raid at the house of latter in a bid to recover his mobile phone for investigation purposes.
Izhar, the driver of Gill, had already fled away when police conducted raid to arrest him.
However, the police took his wife and a relative into custody.

Reacting to the police's raid, PTI Chairman and former Prime Minister Imran Khan strongly condemned arrest of Izhar's wife and relative, terming it “fascist illegal abductions”.
Imran Khan tweeted, "I want to ask our legal community are there no fundamental rights anymore?,".
The former Prime Minister also lashed out at the incumbent government, saying that imported government of the cabal of crooks brought through foreign backed regime change was using fear and terror in the media and among people to gain acceptance after facing rejection in Punjab.

The only solution is fair and free elections,”.
