The issue surrounding the release of former Federal Minister Shehryar Afridi and his brother, Farrukh Afridi, has taken a new turn as Shehryar Afridi was re-arrested from outside Adiala Jail, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.

He was detained in connection with a case involving the vandalizing of the gate of a sensitive institution.

The case in question was registered at Newtown police station, following an alleged attack on the office gate of the said sensitive institution.

Shehryar Afridi, along with five others, was granted bail by the Rawalpindi bench of Lahore High Court (LHC) regarding an incident where they were charged with attacking military installations on May 9.

The LHC division bench, comprising Justice Safdar Saleem Shahid and Justice Anwaarul Haq Pannun, granted bail to Mr. Afridi and the other suspects, including the petitioner Nadia Hussain, Haider Mehmood Khan, Asmatullah, Balaj Khan, and Sher Sikandar. The case against them pertains to alleged ransacking at GHQ and desecration of martyrs' monuments.

Meanwhile, the brother of the former PTI minister, Farrukh Jamal Afridi, has been arrested under the Maintenance of Public Order (MPO) act for a duration of 15 days. The arrest took place after a police party conducted a raid at Farrukh Jamal Afridi's residence in Westridge, where they apprehended him. The detention orders were issued by the City Police Officer Rawalpindi, based on a report from SHO Westridge, claiming that the accused, Jamal, was involved in instigating and planning to organize unlawful assembly, commit violence, and deliver unlawful speeches, which could lead to damage to human life and public/private properties.

These developments have added complexity to the already sensitive situation, with legal proceedings and law enforcement taking center stage. As the case unfolds, the accused will undergo legal scrutiny, and the justice system will determine the course of action.
