KOHAT, Sept 12: The political administration of the Orakzai Agency on Friday rearrested a top leader of the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan under the Frontier Crimes Regulation soon after his release on bail granted by the anti-terrorism court.

A large number of people had gathered in the Kohat court when the Taliban leader, Maulvi Rafiuddin, was to be released on bail granted to him by the ATC judge as all necessary documents had been completed in this respect.

But soon, his arrest orders were again issued by Orakzai Agency political agent Kamran Zeb and he along with his two companions was rearrested under the FCR and sent back to the prison.—Correspondent
