Police have arrested Multan District Bar Association president Yusuf Zubair, general secretary Anis Mehdi, Khawaja Qaiser, Multan High Court Bar Association (MHCBA) president Sher Zaman, MHCBA ex-president Mehmood Ashraf Khan, Syed Irfan Shamsi, Khalid Ashraf Khan, Javed Iqbal Ojla, Hussain Farooq Hashmi and Arshad Sabir.
