ISLAMABAD: Police raided the residence of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Hammad Azhar late at night, during which only his elderly parents were present.

During the operation, two of Azhar’s employees were taken into custody. Azhar has described the raid as an attempt to harass his family.

Police reportedly stole Hammad Azhar’s pet dog. It was a black German shepherd and inside reports claim that one officer who was accompanying the raiding party saw the pedigreed dog and decided to take it.

 

Hammad Azhar went into hiding after the riots on May 9, 2023, fearing a police crackdown. Azhar has made a public comeback, showing up at his party’s central secretariat in Islamabad, following a year-long absence.

Imran Khan, the founder of the PTI, recently issued a call to action for all party officials who are now in hiding to come out of hiding and pick up their political activities, which led to Azhar’s homecoming.
