Jibran Nasir was taken away against his will by about 15 armed individuals. Mansha, who was clearly upset, asked everyone to join her in praying for her husband’s safe return. The hashtag #ReleaseJibranNasir became trending on Twitter as a result of the news’ rapid dissemination.
Jibran Nasir, a Karachi-based independent candidate in the 2018 general elections, is well-known for his outspoken criticism of both the legal proceedings involving those accused of taking part in riots and the recent state crackdown on the PTI (Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf) party.
Jibran Nasir’s most recent tweet, which was directed at Islamabad, cautioned against any public acts of vandalism or violence by Abdul Aziz and emphasized that he should not be viewed as an independent actor. However, the precise reason for his “pick up” is still unknown.
