Pakistani senior cop Mufakhar Adeel and former assistant attorney general Shahbaz Ahmad Tatla were kidnapped by unknown men in Lahore earlier this week, The News International reported on Thursday.
Lahore Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), Abdeel, and his friend, Tatla, were reportedly kidnapped under mysterious circumstances a couple of days ago, the daily said.
