Lahore [Pakistan], October 22 : Pakistan police detained activists of the banned outfit Tehreek-i-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) after the group announced a march to Islamabad, local media reported.
According to Dawn, an official said that numerous "fourth schedulers" of the group were detained from all the districts of the province. The official informed the newspaper that around 900 workers and second-tier leadership of the TLP protested outside the Jamia Masjid Rehmatul Lil Aalamin on Multan Road.
