In a surprising turn of events, authorities have arrested Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) activist Sanam Javed once again, just hours after a local Islamabad court acquitted her of charges brought by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA).
The court decided in her favor on Sunday and released her from custody. However, authorities apprehended her shortly after she arrived at the office of her lawyer, Mian Ali Ashfaq, cutting her freedom short.
Confirming the re-arrest on social media, Ashfaq stated that Islamabad police had taken Ms. Javed into custody. He emphasized the importance of cooperating with law enforcement and said they had handed her over without resistance. Ashfaq stated, “Sanam Javed has been re-arrested by Islamabad police. We have cooperated fully with the authorities, demonstrating the conduct expected of law-abiding citizens.”
The PTI activist’s re-arrest has raised questions and concerns among party supporters and the general public.

Earlier, an Islamabad district and sessions court on Sunday dismissed the case against the PTI activist Sanam Javed made over tweets on the social media platform X. Duty Magistrate Malik Imran pronounced the reserved verdict on Sanam Javed’s remand.
Previously, a two-member bench of the Lahore High Court (LHC) led by Justice Asjad Javed Gharal had discharged the PTI activist from the Gujranwala case.
In her plea, she argued that the Gujranwala Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) issued a physical remand, unfairly targeting her in politically motivated cases. Furthermore, she claimed that authorities repeatedly arrested her in new cases immediately after releasing her from others. Additionally, the PTI activist stated in her petition that political motives drove the ongoing legal actions against her and requested the court to dismiss the case.

The public prosecutor countered that statements linking Ms. Javed to incidents of arson on May 9 implicated her, and these incidents are currently under investigation. Despite these claims, the court ruled in favor of Sanam Javed, discharging her from the Gujranwala case.
Sanam Javed’s re-arrest highlights the ongoing political tensions and legal battles faced by PTI activists in Pakistan. The situation continues to develop, drawing significant attention from the public and media.
