Bara: Journalists of three press clubs in Khyber district, political leaders and social activists recently demonstrated at the Khyber Chowk in Bara to demand the release of journalist Khadim Khan.

Khan is a former president of the Bara Press Club in Pakistan.

Speaking on the occasion, speakers asked the government to release Khadim Khan Afridi and set up a judicial commission to investigate the incident of the arrest, reports The News International.

They said that tribal people had rendered sacrifices but alleged that the intelligence agencies were arresting innocent people in the name of terrorists.

“How many innocent tribal people have to be arrested by intelligence agencies from the merged districts in the name of fake terrorist activities,” said one of the speakers.
