| Security officials raided the Jamia Matlaul Uloom seminary on Brewery Road on Tuesday and arrested a suspect. Hafiz Hussain Ahmad, a Mutahidda Majlis-e-Amal member of the National Assembly, ran the seminary. Hafiz Munir, son of Mr Ahmad, told reporters that security personnel carried dossiers of sketches, interrogated several students and took one former student with them. He said the seminary was raided on "directives from the United States". |
