KARACHI: Law enforcers conducted a raid in Nawabshah and arrested former president Asif Ali Zardari’s right-hand man, Ismail Dahri.

They also confiscated a cache of weapons during the raid at Dahri’s residence.

Dahri has been shifted to an undisclosed location. He was wanted in many cases, said police officials.

Dahri’s brother, Raza, and 40 other men were also arrested during the raid. They were released shortly.
