ISLAMABAD: Prominent human rights lawyer Imaan Mazari and her husband were arrested in the federal capital, Geo News reported on Monday, citing sources.

The sources added that Mazari and her husband, Abdul Hadi, have been arrested in a case registered at Aapbara Police Station concerning interference in government operations.

The arrest of Mazari, the daughter of former federal minister Shireen Mazari, comes days after she and her spouse engaged in a scuffle with traffic police following their attempted to remove the road blockades placed for the visiting England team’s traffic protocol.

The English team was in Pakistan for a three-match Test series and the last match was played in Rawalpindi cricket stadium.

The incident occurred at Islamabad Zero Point Interchange in the morning when the teams were being transported to the stadium.

Mazari’s husband thrashed policemen, abused them and threatened them with dire consequences, the sources added.

While Mazari claimed that she was in a hurry as she had to reach court, Islamabad police said that the couple had violated the standard operating procedures (SOPs) of state guests and warned of filing a case.
