Police is extremely aggressive today, visiting hospitals and arresting activists, who are trying to get treatment there.
Athar Minallah (spokesperson of Chief Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry) has also been arrested.
At least one activist has been taken to emergency after police torture.
Iqbal Bali (age: 65+), a veteran activist, is still missing.
Police is deliberately not disclosing the location of the detainees – they are afraid of the ‘sit in’ (dharna) and candle light vigils the students and the civil society members will start there.
Students and the lawyers are deliberating the next move. One option is offering themseves for arrest, other is sit-in (dharna).
