QUETTA: Hassan Khan Niazi, the nephew of the Pakistan Tehrik e Insaf (PTI) Chief, Imran Khan was handed over to the Quetta Police on Friday. Mr. Niazi was handed over to the Quetta police after a judicial magistrate in Islamabad approved one-day transit remand of the latter.
Police had taken Hassan Khan Niazi outside the judicial complex in Islamabad a few days back. Police sources had said that Niazi was apprehended in G-11 near the Judicial Complex for his involvement in attacking law enforcement personnel and causing chaos in the federal capital.
The arrest is part of an ongoing crackdown on PTI activists and supporters who police claim assaulted law enforcers while they were performing their duties in Islamabad.
When contacted by the Daily Quetta Voice, senior police officials preferred not to share the details about Hassan Khan Niazi. Neither, they confirmed Niazi was in custody nor rejected the news.
