PTM activist Gulalai Ismail placed on blacklist over seditious speech

ISLAMABAD: Pashtun Tahaffuz Movement (PTM) activist Gulalai Ismail’s name was blacklisted on Monday for delivering seditious speeches and inciting people to attack state-institutions.

Blacklisting means that Gulalai has been put on a temporary 30-day travel ban. All the national airports have also been informed in this regard.

A case had also been registered against Gulalai for making an anti-state speech and inciting Pashtuns against the government and armed forces.

The case also included Section 7 of the Anti-Terrorism Act 1999 (ATA).

The FIR (First Information Report) read that Gulalai delivered an “anti-state and hate speech during a protest rally organized in Islamabad against murder and alleged rape of 10-year-old girl Farishta”.

Earlier, Gulalai Ismail was briefly apprehended by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) at Islamabad Airport upon her arrival from London.

She was taken to FIA Headquarters where she was briefly interrogated and was later allowed to go.
