Another Attempt Of Haqqani And Co To Defame Pak Army And ISI

On one side Ijaz has been threatened to the extent that he refused to come to Pakistan. He is right he would not be allowed to return back live, however, his dead body may be returned to USA. Why should he risk his life? Other hand Haqqani's wife has alleged ISI for kidnapping her if she remained in Pakistan so she fled out to USA. All this background indicates that Ijaz is not wrong. The concerned quarter so cared that they would allow Ijaz at any cost to appear before the commission. The court must take action.
The wife of under-fire former Pakistani ambassador to US Husain Haqqani has fled to Washington, saying she feared of being kidnapped by the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) of Pakistan.
A newspaper report quoted Farahnaz Ispahani, who herself is President Asif Zardar’s spokesperson, as saying that she fled to the US for fears that ISI might kidnap her to force her husband to sign a confession and implicate the president.
The report quoted her saying: “What we’re seeing is the systematic killing or silencing of anyone who stands up to the institutionalization of a militarized Islamic state, who advocates positive relations with the West or stands up for tolerance… I’m scared. The government can’t even protect itself.”
Her husband Husain Haqqani, who is in hiding at the Prime Minister’s House, is facing trial for allegedly dictating a controversial memo to a US national Manssor Ijaz seeking US intervention to “save the civilian government from the military”. Ijaz has shown his willingness to testify against Haqqani before the judicial commission and the trial could potentially lead to conviction of the envoy in treason case.
The newspaper report also said that moderate voices in Pakistan are being silenced by the country’s military intelligence arm, the ISI, and militant groups.
It listed some journalists, politicians and civil society members who were allegedly killed by the military itself or the extremist forces enjoying military’s backing.
