The Counter-Terrorism Department has arrested two Punjab University (PU) faculty members and a student in a raid over their alleged link with an outlawed organisation. The teachers are identified as Assistant Professor Amir Saeed of the Institute of Administration Sciences, Omer Nawaz boys' hostel superintendent and lecturer at the College of Information Technology and Law College student named Waqar.
On Monday, Assistant Professor Saeed was arrested at the male teachers' hostel where he lived with his family, while hostel superintendent Nawaz, who was arrested at his home near the boys' hostel. Waqar was arrested on the university premises. The raid was carried out a few days after a department team detained Assistant Professor Ghalib Ata of the Punjab University's Institute of Administrative Sciences in Allama Iqbal Town. The Punjab University Academic Staff Association has voiced serious concerns over their arrests without its prior knowledge.
In their press statement, Academic Staff Association President Professor (Dr) Hasan Mobeen Alamand some members that included Vice Presidents Professor (Dr) Abid Hussain Chaudhry and Dr Faheem Aftab, Secretary Dr Mahboob Hussain said, "There are serious reservations among the university teachers over the arrest of the College of Information Technology's Assistant Professor Umar Nawaz and the Institute of Administrative Science's Assistant Professor Dr Amir Saeed."
They also said that since this incident took place without informing administration, terrorists could also use the same way adopted by the personnel of sensitive agency and it would be difficult for the university's security staff to distinguish between them. The raid has now prompted the association to call for an emergency meeting of its general body today (Tuesday) at the auditorium of the Institute of Biochemistry and Biotechnology.
