The 22-year-old Islam Yamin was transferred blindfolded and handcuffed in a military jeep to an unknown detention center, the PIC reporter quoted eyewitnesses as saying.
His arrest came after a large-scale raid campaign in the town where several homes were stormed and searched which led to the outbreak of violent clashes.
