Karachi(social media )The Awami Workers Party condemns in the strongest possible terms the arbitrary arrest of many of its leaders from a peaceful protest outside the Islamabad Press Club, including deputy general secretary Ismat Shahjehan and Punjab president Ammar Rashid alongwith a number of party workers. The AWP contingent was participating in the protest at the call of the Pashtun Tahaffuz Movement (PTM) to demand release of PTM leader Manzoor Pashteen who was arrested a day earlier. 
The AWP rejects the farce that is the ‘democratic’ government of the PTI and demands that its workers be released alongside other PTM and civil rights activists arrested from outside the Islamabad press club simply for exercising their constitutional right to free speech and assembly.
