Before the conclusion of the Seminar Mr Waheed Ahmad Advocate presented brief Report regarding his Arrest and released.

I would like to bring into your notice that after the proclamation of Emergency cum Marshal Law in the country on 03-11-2007, the Constitution of Pakistan 1973 has been abrogated and some fundamental rights have been suspended, the aftereffects of emergency can be envisaged through the lawyers campaign for restoring democracy, independence of judiciary, reinstatement of Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, uphold the Constitution of Pakistan 1973 where the campaign was suppressed by the law enforcing agencies by making an assault on lawyers community in Lahore High Court Premises where hundreds of lawyers were brutally tortured and arrested, it is also pertinent to mention here that police lodged FIRs against these lawyers for unlawful assembly, flaming speeches against military including other sections of anti terrorism acts. The apprehensions of lawyers are hitherto either walking on road wearing uniform or in court premises. I would also like to add here that now lawyers hesitate to sit in offices because there are many reported cases where lawyers were arrested from their offices so the lawyer community and political parties’ leaders, activists and workers are under threat of being apprehended without bail able warrants.

I have been apprehended along with my professional colleagues (Lawyers) in the High Court premises during an open house session being addressed by the Lahore High Court Bar Association officer bearers and other senior lawyers in Karachi Hall. The Lawyers were badly beaten by sticks and gun butts due such violence many lawyers got seriously injured and were hospitalized whereas most of them were transported to jails with being given any medical aid. My coat was also stained with their bloods to whom I have been providing first aid and accompanying them to High Court Dispensary. I had many opportunities to escape from the place of occurrence but I was over whelmed by the lawyers campaign spirit whose manifesto is to restoring democracy, reinstatement of judges who refused to take oath under PCO and independence of judiciary injected in me.

After being arrested on 5-11-2007 the police lodged a false and frivolous FIR No 709/07 Under Section 16 MPO, 7 ATA, 290, 291, 186, 188, 147, 148, 427, 440, 353, 324 PPC our FIR contains huge numbers of offences without any reason and knowledge, we were stuffed into police van like criminals or moreover as prisoner of war and were transported to Police Station Sarwar Road Lahore Cantt. We were detained in barracks for more than 24 hours but had not been produced before judicial magistrate. We were shifted to the major prisoner cell of Kot Lakh Path jail on 6-11-2007 in the same manner. It would be pertinent mention here that law enforcing agencies did not allow any of our relative to meet us or also denied the right of legal representation through legal council in court. On 7-11-2007 we were transported to Multan New central Jail and had remained behind bars for five days without being produced before any court in Multan .

I belong to middle class family and a sole bread winner for entire family. We have a combined family system living with my grandmother, parents, paternal ant, wife, son and sister. They were very worried about me and it was difficult for them to trace me and after many struggle they came to know that I have been taken to Multan
