MULTAN, May 25: A wanted man is reported to have been arrested by personnel of an intelligence agency from the Cantonment Railway Station here. The personnel surrounded the railway station before the arrival of Tezgam Express early on Wednesday morning. Eyewitnesses said several vehicles with tinted glasses had been parked outside the station while a contingent of police was also seen nearby.

As soon as the train pulled into the station, the intelligence agency personnel rushed towards a carriage and took the man into custody.

Local police authorities, however, expressed their ignorance about the incident.

A source said that the intelligence agency had been monitoring the man since he had boarded the train at Bahawalpur.

The source said that the man was sent to Rawalpindi. His identity could not be ascertained.
