Lahore: Sher Afzal Marwat, Senior Vice President of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), has been released from Kot Lakhpat Jail Lahore, challenging his detention under Section 3 of the Maintenance of Public Order (MPO).

The Lahore High Court (LHC) ordered his release, stating that his arrest was politically motivated and lacked evidence of any illegal activity. Justice Shehram Sarwar nullified the detention, emphasizing the need to uphold justice standards.

The Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) advocated for Marwat's release, condemning his arrest as a violation of human rights.

Last week, Marwat alleged an attempted abduction by KP police, and an FIR was registered against him for organizing a worker's convention in Swabi.
