Imaan Mazari, Prominent Rights Lawyer, Arrested Alongside Husband in Islamabad

Islamabad police have detained human rights lawyer Imaan Mazari and her husband, Hadi Ali, citing legal grounds for their actions. According to a statement released on X (formerly Twitter), police alleged that the couple posed a security risk by interfering in state duties during the visit of an international cricket team. The arrest has sparked widespread debate on social media, with activists and legal circles questioning the motives behind it.

Mazari, known for her work defending human rights and freedom of speech, has previously clashed with authorities. Supporters argue the charges may be linked to her outspoken advocacy, while police maintain that the arrest was solely a matter of public safety.
