ISLAMABAD/SIALKOT: The police on Thursday arrested Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Rehana Dar — mother of Usman Dar — in Sialkot, confirmed her son.

The arrest comes as the Imran Khan-founded party had given a call for protest rallies to mark the Mary 9 mayhem anniversary.

Confirming the report of his mother’s detention, Umar alleged that the police took his mother and other PTI women supporters on the “directives of Defence Minister Khawaja Asif”.

“My mother gave a protest call for May 9,” Usman said, adding that the police had surrounded Jinnah House in Sialkot since morning.
