Three more sons of TNSM chief Sufi Mohammad arrested in Peshawar

Lahore, Sep.3 (ANI): Pakistan security agencies have arrested three more sons of the Tehreek-e-Nifaz-e-Shariat-e-Muhammadi (TNSM) chief Sufi Mohammad.

According to The Daily Times, the three men were detained along with their families from Peshawar's Pervaiz Colony.

Security forces nabbed Abdullah, Fazlullah and Abdul Rehman in a raid and took them to an unidentified location, sources said.

Sufi Mohammad has 11 sons, three of whom are already in prison.

The three men Ziaullah, Rizwanullah and Hayatullah were arrested along with their father, from their residence in Peshawar on July 22.

They were later sent to prison under the provision of the Maintenance of Public Order law, which allows people to be detained without charges being filed against them.

Sufi's sons were released last month after they challenged their detention in the Peshawar High Court, but were arrested again later by security officials, saying they were wanted in various other cases also. (ANI)
