PTI demands recovery of ‘abducted’ MNA Haji Imtiaz

Islamabad was shaken on Sunday by allegations of the abduction of prominent PTI leader and MNA Haji Imtiaz, who was kidnapped while en route to a party meeting from Mandi Bahauddin to Peshawar. The PTI's Central Media Department expressed deep alarm over the disappearance, highlighting grave concerns for the nation's rule of law, civil liberties, and the safety of political figures and supporters.

The party demanded that Haji Imtiaz be swiftly and safely recovered, and called for the identification and prosecution of those responsible, in line with legal standards. The PTI stressed that the state must safeguard every citizen's life, liberty, and property, especially those holding public office. They warned that if political or state interference is confirmed, it would be a dangerous blow to democratic principles, constitutional rights, and law and order.

PTI vowed to highlight the issue across all democratic channels until Haji Imtiaz's safe return, urging the federal and Punjab governments to act immediately to ensure his recovery and keep the public informed on the investigation's developments.
