PTI leader Hassaan Khan Niazi was arrested in Abbottabad in the wee hours of Monday, his father claimed. No official confirmation has so far been released on the alleged arrest of the former prime minister’s nephew.

“I hope the legal requirements will be met and the law will not be violated,” Hafeezullah Khan Niazi said in a social media post on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Hassaan was notified as the focal person on legal affairs to the chairman/party on June 7, 2022. He was appointed under a well-conceived strategy to deal with the dictatorial tactics and unconstitutional and undemocratic steps of the “imported” government, according to the party.

But Khan’s nephew Hassan Niazi was hiding since the events of May 9 which was triggered by the arrest of the PTI chief within the premises of Islamabad High Court. State buildings and military installations were attacked during protests.

Hassan is accused of being involved in the attack on Jinnah House (Lahore Corps Commanders House) in Lahore.

Other PTI leaders also wrote about his alleged arrest on social media.

Riaz Ahmed of Aaj News while citing sources said that Hassaan was hiding in a factory, but no official confirmation has been received on such reports.
