To maintain law and order, additional personnel have been deployed, and police patrolling and field presence have been emphasized. The chief stressed the importance of visible policing during these critical times.
This heightened state of readiness in Karachi aligns with increased security measures nationwide in response to PTI’s protests and marches.
Meanwhile, in the Multan division, authorities have detained approximately 1,257 PTI workers, including members of the national and provincial assemblies. Over 200 PTI activists en route to Islamabad have also been taken into custody. Key figures such as Zain Qureshi, Amir Doggar, and others were detained near Qadirpur Raan while leading a convoy for today’s protest.
The arrests reflect rising political tensions as PTI continues its demonstrations across the country. Security forces remain vigilant to prevent disruptions and maintain public order.
