LAHORE, June 4: In a surprise move, police launched a crackdown on opposition leaders and activists in several districts of Punjab in the early hours of Tuesday.

The crackdown was going on till 2am in Okara, Dera Ghazi Khan, Sahiwal, Sargodha, Kasur, Jhang, Layyah, Kot Addu and Multan. Those picked up included district and tehsil level officer-bearers of PPP, PML-N and JI.
