According to the jail administration, Afridi was released on completion of his “house arrest” period under the MPO.


As reported, former state minister Shehryar Afridi along with his wife was picked up on May 16 from his residence in Islamabad under Section 3 of Maintenance of Public Order (MPO) Ordinance 1960, which enables the government to arrest persons “acting in any manner prejudicial to public safety”.

However, his wife was released later on the orders of the Islamabad High Court (IHC).
