Pakistani journalist and YouTuber Matiullah Jan, who had allegedly been abducted by law enforcement, was released after an anti-terrorism court granted him bail in a “terrorism and narcotics case”. His abduction and the charges were condemned by Amnesty International and the Committee to Protect Journalists, with the latter stating that Mr. Jan’s arrest was the result of “his coverage of protests by supporters of imprisoned former prime minister Imran Khan”. Though Mr. Jan had originally been thought to have been picked up whilst reporting at Islamabad’s Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) on Thursday (November 28), he was held on charges on terrorism and narcotics charges, which Amnesty International called “trumped up charges” to justify his “arbitrary detention.”
