KARACHI: Police  and intelligence agencies on Friday arrested another member of Rao Anwar's team during a joint raid in Karachi, according to Geo News.

Shakeel, a policeman, was part of former SSP Malir's shooting team, the TV channel reported.

Rao Anwar  is accused of killing Naqeebullah Mehsood, a native of South Waziristan, in a  fake encounter in Karachi.

The murder was carried out in  January, days after the youth went missing from Sohrab Goth.

The killing sparked countrywide protests  after  the pictures of the aspiring model were widely circulated on the social media.

A sit-in was also staged in Islamabad to protest against the  extra judicial murder of Mehsood.

Rao Anwar went into hiding after his attempt  to flee the country was foiled by  FIA officials at Islamabad's Benazir International Airport.

He appeared before the Supreme Court last month which  ordered the police to arrest him, refusing to grant him protective bail.

He was shifted to Karachi and sent on physical remand.
