Rizvi’s name was placed in the Fourth Schedule on April 16, 2021.
Lahore: The Punjab government has removed the name of Saad Rizvi, the chief of Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP), and 577 other workers from the Fourth Schedule— a list on which suspects of terrorism are put under the Anti-Terrorism Act, 1997.
Authorities have removed the name of Saad Rizvi on Thursday (November 11) on the recommendation of the District Intelligence Committee, following the deal that reached between the TLP and the federal government on October 31.
In this regard, the Punjab Home Department has issued a notification.
Rizvi’s name was placed in the Fourth Schedule on April 16, 2021.
Just six months after being outlawed, the TLP got a clean chit from the federal cabinet and its cases quashed as well as workers released from jails.
In April, TLP activists blocked highways, railways and wreaked havoc across Pakistan, following which authorities arrested their leader, Saad Hussain Rizvi, and banned the organization.
