Muzaffarabad: In a significant development, Syeda Arooba Komal, the social media manager for Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), has allegedly been detained from her residence in Islamabad. The incident has sparked widespread condemnation among PTI supporters and human rights activists.
PTI social media activist Wahab Khan took to Twitter to report the incident, stating, “Syeda Arooba Komal, who manages PTI’s Facebook page, was abducted from her home. Her supposed crime is her support for Imran Khan. It is alarming that individuals who abduct women seem to disregard the sanctity of familial bonds. Our nation’s mothers, sisters, and daughters deserve protection, not persecution.”
The PTI has demanded the immediate release of Syeda Arooba Komal, highlighting the ongoing concerns about the suppression of dissenting voices in Pakistan. The party claims that the arrest is part of a broader crackdown on social media activists who support PTI’s ideology and leadership.
