(HuT) activists to police.

Industrial Area police produced the activists of HuT, who were placed in long-term storage from I-9/4 during a raid, in the ATC to seek their physical remand.

After hearing the argument the judicator gave them in police custody on three-day physical remand.

Earlier, Industrial Area police had booked the 19 HuT activists under anti-terrorism act.

During investigation it was revealed that the house on street 35 in I-9/4 was hired eight months back at Rs37,000 per month rent. It was owned by Raja Bashir, a resident of Sector I-9.

Although the police cordoned off the house and the area, one of the activists managed to escape and avoid arrest, the police added.

During the raid some maps were also recovered from the house, the sources said, adding, however, the nature of the maps was being kept secret.
