Senior journalist Mohsin Baig has been arrested by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) from his house in a raid. The news of the journalist being arrested was confirmed by Mohsin Baig’s son himself. The senior wing of the FIA raided Mohsin Baig’s home, whereupon the senior journalist and his staff sought an arrest warrant, which the FIA team refused to show.
The FIA’s arrest without a warrant is being concealed by saying that one of our officers was also injured in the firing at Mohsin Baig’s house. However, Mohsin Baig’s family said in this regard. The firing was carried out in self-defense.
