The interior ministry has clarified that a person’s passport and identity card cannot be revoked because of unruly behaviour, adding separate legal requirements are to be fulfilled in order to block these documents. Earlier, Tarar told newsmen that a request would be submitted to the ministry of interior and added that the trend of publicly harassing PMLN leaders was unacceptable.
