Unidentified individuals abducted renowned journalist Matiullah Jan from the parking lot of PIMS Hospital in Islamabad at approximately 11 PM.

At the time of the abduction of Matiullah Jan, he was accompanied by journalist Saqib Bashir, who was later released by the kidnappers in the I-9 sector.

Saqib Bashir reported that both were blindfolded and forcibly taken in a van-like vehicle. He noted that they had been at PIMS Hospital from early Wednesday morning to verify data related to injuries and fatalities. Around 11:30 PM, as they were departing, unknown assailants abducted them from the hospital’s parking area.
