The Islamabad police on Tuesday arrested PTI senior leader Shahbaz Gill from the limits of Banigala police station, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.
Sources said the Islamabad police registered a case against Gill under sections that include using derogatory remarks against sensitive state institutions.
He was taken into custody from outside Imran Khan’s residence at Banigala Chowk of the federal capital.
The Islamabad police after arresting the PTI leader shifted him to an unknown place.
Former information minister Fawad Chaudhry confirmed the news saying that the authorities have abducted Shahbaz Gill.
In his tweet on Tuesday, Fawad Ch wrote: “Shahbaz Gill has been abducted from Banigala Chowk by people who came in vehicles without number plates.”
Another PTI leader Murad Saeed tweeted: “Shahbaz Gil was arrested. The imported government is in a frenzy.”
“How many PTI leaders will be arrested? How many journalists will be banned? The windows of Shahbaz Gill’s car were also broken. There was a terrible plan last night but Imran Khan's followers sent a clear message, Imran Khan is a red line.”
“After May 20, (they also hatched) a terrible plan last night too. A clear message was given “Imran Khan is red line”. Those who are part of the American conspiracy, those who have sold the sovereignty of the country, you have lost, the people have rejected you. Every move you make is exposing you more.
“I have been warning for weeks that we are being made target again. The media remained silent and the imported government remained silent. The silence of the American slaves is not without reason. They themselves have started this new game, they are complicit. But for me, the silence of the media was beyond me. Now it has been exposed.”
