QUETTA, Feb 26: Police on Tuesday arrested an Arab national from the Muslim Bagh area of Qila Saifullah, a district bordering Afghanistan, on the charges of travelling without legal documents.

Confirming the arrest, a police official told Dawn that the 22-year-old man belonged to Iraq.

Sources said that police had seized some documents found in his possession.

The man was arrested from the same district where important Afghan commander Mansoor Dadullah and six other people were arrested two weeks ago.
