Police have arrested a man for a social media post likening the Tarnol Railway Crossing to the Strait of Hormuz, as heightened security measures remain in place in the capital amid regional tensions. The arrest was made after an FIR was registered on the complaint of Sub-Inspector Shahid Asghar on behalf of the state. The case has been lodged under Sections 188 (disobedience to order duly promulgated by a public servant), 341 (wrongful restraint) and 511 (attempt to commit offences) of the PPC. According to the complaint, the accused, identified as Khurram, had shared a post on social media stating, "Tarnol Railway Crossing is no less than the Strait of Hormuz. If it is closed, all our problems will be resolved". Police said the suspect was taken into custody and his mobile phone was examined, where evidence of the post was found. The development comes at a time when extraordinary security arrangements are in place across Islamabad and Rawalpindi ahead of a possible second round of talks between the US and Iran.
