ISLAMABAD:Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) has announced sit-ins at three locations in Islamabad and Rawalpindi following the arrest of its workers and road blockages at D-Chowk. JI workers removed containers at Faizabad and opened the route, allowing a convoy to enter Rawalpindi and set up at Liaquat Bagh.

JI’s central spokesperson, Qaiser Sharif, stated that due to the arrests and barriers at D-Chowk, JI decided to hold sit-ins at three locations. “We will hold sit-ins at Murree Road in Rawalpindi, Zero Point, and Chungi No. 26,” he said.

The sit-in at Murree Road will be led by Amirul Azeem, Deputy Amir Dr Osama Razi, along with provincial and district leadership. JI chief Hafiz Naeemur Rehman will lead the sit-in at Zero Point, with Deputy Amir Liaqat Baloch, Mian Muhammad Aslam, and other provincial and Islamabad leaders joining.
