Just yesterday, PTI Karachi division office-bearers showed to media documents which they claimed were proof of an agreement reached between the PPP and JI. Speaking on this occasion, PTI Karachi General Secretary and member Sindh Assembly (MPA) Arsalan Taj Ghumman had alleged that the provincial government had offered concessions to the JI. “Now the party has become a B team of the Sindh government,” he alleged.
There has been no official words on the arrest of Arsalan Taj till the filing of this report, due to which it has remained unclear as to on what charges he had been detained.
