Journalist detained by unidentified men

wife of a Pakistani journalist says he was detained by unidentified security forces and has been unreachable for more than 24 hours.

Nasrullah Khan’s wife, Ghulam Fatima, says he was taken from their home early on Saturday by armed men, some wearing uniforms, who said he would be released after questioning. They also took his computer. Khan works as a sub-editor for a local daily in Karachi.

Maqsood Yousufi, Karachi Press Club’s head, said yesterday that armed men barged into the club on Thursday and videotaped the premises. (AP)
