Firdous Ashiq expresses reservations over Irfan Siddiqui's arrest

Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan
Special Assistant to the Prime Minister (SAPM) on Information Firdous Ashiq Awan has on Saturday expressed reservations over the arrest of Irfan Siddiqui – a close advisor to former premier Nawaz Sharif.

The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader said in her statement that she has called for the FIR copy and the matter will further be inspected.

Firdous Ashiq Awan maintained that the tenancy law was made by Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), and it implements equally on all citizens.

She said there are some questions regarding the tenants to whom Irfan Siddiqui rented out his house. It is necessary for the owner to inform the relevant police station while giving the house on rent, she said.

Firdous Ashiq Awan affirmed that Irfan Siddiqui and his family should not be treated unjustly.

Referring to Irfan Siddiqui’s profession, the SAPM said the PTI-led government respects the noble profession of teaching and has no policy of covert actions. It is our mission to make all institutions independent but the process will require some time, she concluded.

Irfan Siddiqui’s arrest

Let it be known that Irfan Siddiqui was sent today to the Adiala Jail on a 14-day judicial remand for allegedly violating tenancy law i.e. not informing police while renting out his house.

He was produced in the courtroom of Magistrate Mehreen Baloch in Islamabad.

Meanwhile, Mr Siddiqui’s defense counsel pleaded with the court to release his client and termed the charges against him as “false and baseless.”

Section 144 had been imposed in Islamabad, the violation of which has resulted in Mr Siddiqui’s arrest under Section 188 of the Criminal Procedure Code allegedly for not informing the relevant police station about giving his house on rent.

He was arrested by police during a raid on his residence late Friday night and later shifted to the Ramna police station in Islamabad.
