      <title>Sindh police send Ali Wazir to Islamabad, MNA to attend session on no-trust vote
</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/30282643/</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ali Wazir - an independent MNA from South Waziristan who has spent over a year at the Karachi Central Prison on sedition charges - has been handed over to court police to transport him to Islamabad where he will attend the crucial National Assembly session on no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan, &lt;em&gt;Aaj News&lt;/em&gt; reported on Thursday.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;According to the report, the Sindh Home Department had declared a room in the Sindh House Islamabad a sub-jail for the MNA.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Some journalists, citing prison officials, have stated that the MNA has been granted parole, with Wazir transported to the Jinnah International Airport in an armoured vehicle.&lt;/p&gt;

        &lt;/blockquote&gt;
    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
				
			&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;			&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Others say that Wazir's custody was handed over due to the production orders, for which the joint opposition had &lt;a href="https://www.aaj.tv/news/30282127"&gt;submitted a letter&lt;/a&gt; to NA Speaker Asad Qaiser on March 25 to faicilitate Wazir's participation in the NA session to vote on the no-confidence motion against the premier.&lt;/p&gt;

        &lt;/blockquote&gt;
    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
				
			&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;			&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;National Democratic Movement chief Mohsin Dawar, PPP Chairperson Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif, Balochistan National Party chief Akhtar Mengal, JUI-F leader Asad Mehmood and others signed the letter urging the NA speaker to issue Wazir's production orders. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;MNA Wazir has been in custody since December 2020 after he was arrested for delivering seditious speeches in Karachi. A similar case was registered against him in Miran Shah, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;After spending more than 11 months in custody, the Supreme Court granted him bail in November 2021. However, his release was stalled after an anti-terrorism court requested additional verification before another arrest order was issued.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Pashtun Tahaffuz Movement has held a sit-in before the Sindh Assembly demanding Wazir’s release on bail since February 14.&lt;/p&gt;
