KARACHI: The spokesman for Pakis­tan Rangers, Sindh, has confirmed that a man arrested by police at the Government Pre­mier College in North Nazimabad for interfering in an intermediate examination was an official of the paramilitary force.

The man was arrested after the college administration informed the law enforcement agency that a suspicious-looking man pretending to be an intelligence agency official was trying to interfere during the exa­­mination.

“The arrested man is a Rangers official,” said the spokesman. “He was in plain clothes and involved in a brawl. His son was appearing in the examination being held at the college.”
