QUETTA, Oct 16: A woman has asked the judiciary, political parties and international human rights organisations to take note of what she termed illegal detention of her brother by the ISI.

Addressing newsmen at the Quetta Press Club on Monday, she alleged that her brother Ghaffar Lango had been arrested by the ISI from Mastung on June 27, along with one Abdul Nabi.

She said Nabi, who was later released, informed them that they had been detained at the ISI Centre on Ghalib Road Cantonment and tortured. She said that according to Nabi, her brother was still in the ISI custody.

She said that tribal elders had constituted a committee which would meet representatives of the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan and political parties asking them to raise their voice against the ‘illegal detention’.
