Back in October, Rangers had arrested senior leaders of Altaf Hussain-led Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) Dr Hassan Zafar Arif and Kunwar Khalid Younis from outside the Karachi Press Club. Amjadullah Khan, who remained inside the press club for four hours, was arrested as he came out of the place in the evening.

Kunwar Khalid Younis was later released due to ill-health.
