NORTH WAZIRISTAN: Ali Wazir, a Member of the National Assembly (MNA), has been arrested months after his release from prison, sources said Monday, with the detention taking place in North Waziristan.
It is not yet clear on what charges he has been arrested.
The development comes days after the Federal Investigation Agency's (FIA) cybercrime circle summoned Wazir and Manzoor Pashteen over mutiny charges for their social posts.
In a notice, the FIA summoned Wazir, Pashteen and three others to its Peshawar office on June 23.
Wazir, an MNA from South Waziristan, was released on February 14 from the Karachi Central Jail after being behind bars for more than two years.
He was arrested in Peshawar on December 16, 2020, in connection with a case lodged against him at Karachi's Sohrab Goth Police Station on charges of sedition for delivering hate speeches against state institutions.
He was later arrested in more cases lodged on similar charges in the port city and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
