The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Monday ordered authorities to inform the court before arresting human rights lawyer Imaan Zainab Mazari-Hazir in any case.
Imaan and former lawmaker Ali Wazir were arrested earlier this month. A pair of first information reports (FIR) was registered against the two at Islamabad’s Tarnol police station and Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) police station.
The arrests were made two days after a public meeting organised by the Pashtun Tahaffuz Movement (PTM). Wazir, a PTM member, and Imaan addressed the rally, with videos circulating on social media showing speakers criticising the military establishment over enforced disappearances.
