Islamabad: Government included Pakistan Army’s blue-eyed persons in the commission set up to interrogate Abottabad operation, senior Pakistani journalist Najam Sethi reveals on Wednesday.
While talking to a private Pakistani news channel (Geo News) Sethi said Pakistan Army does not want transparent investigation of Abottabad incident. Pakistan Army always seized the investigation of important issues of Pakistan, and if inquiry in any case was completed, its report was not made publically.
Najam Sethi said that commission on Abottabad incident made in haste despite taking long time. However, it was accepted in the unanimous resolution passed by in-camera joint sitting of parliament that commission on Abottabad incident would be formed with consultation.
The government formed the commission without taken federal cabinet on board, he added.
The senior journalist said Chairman Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Nawaz Sharif and Saleem Shahzad, journalist who was kidnapped and then killed, kept same point of view regarding PNS Mehran attack but Nawaz Sharif would not lead any long march in this scenario.
He said Pakistan Navy was well informed about PNS Mehran attack but it did not foil the attack.
Referring to Saleem Shahzad wife, Sethi said that someone called her before two days and said her husband was in their custody and he would be released tomorrow.
Sethi said he is sure that Taliban and al Qaeda were not involved in Shahzad’s killing because their tactics and objectives were totally different as he was murdered now. He said about 90 percent internet users in Pakistan believed that Pakistan’s Inter-service Intelligence was involved in his killing because Shahzad pointed out cancer in Pakistan military.
The senior journalist held military leadership responsible of the current crises in Pakistan because at the time of beginning of war against terror in 2001 military was ruling the country and they took US $20 billion in term of financial assistance but there is no record available of the aid.
He also disclosed that Pakistan Army keeps interest in American weapons instead of Chinese and they are interested in purchasing American weapons.
He revealed that one part in Pakistan Army keeps soft corner for Israel. He asked why Pakistan adopts anti-America policy although most of the Islamic countries seek good ties with the US.
