District Police Officer Muhammad Iqbal told The News International that Mufti Sardar Ali Haqqani had delivered a ‘provocative’ speech against women education and their employment in various departments, including doctors, nurses and others.

He told the newspaper that the cleric was arrested after a case registered against him following the video of his controversial speech went viral on social media.

The accused was produced in the court of Judicial Magistrate Sanam Khalid, who admitted his mistake of using derogatory words of the girls acquiring contemporary education and subsequently doing jobs in various institutions, reports the newspaper.

The court granted him bail on two surety bonds.
