The Punjab police carried out a raid at the hostel no 16 of the Punjab University on Monday morning and arrested 17 members of the IJT, the student wing of Jamaat-e-Islami (JI), for their alleged involvement in violence against the university’s teachers.

In a statement, a spokesman for the IJT in Punjab University said that the patience of the students should not be tested. He urged authorities to immediately release the arrested students.

Following the arrest of IJT activists, other members of the organization came on the roads and held demonstrations.
