ISLAMABAD: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP)’s senator Farhatullah Babar during an upper house’s session claimed that Army didn’t want trial of its former Chief of Army Staff (COAS) Pervez Musharraf on treason basis.
The second largest mandate holding political party, PPP’s senator Babar said that the Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) issued handout against the political statement of Jamaat-e- Islami (JI), but keeping silence over Musharraf’s.
Babar was addressing to the senate’s session in Islamabad after observing ISPR’s silence over Musharraf’s statement claiming army didn’t want his trial.
The country’s political and security situation was being discussed in the senate session under senate Chairman Nayyar Hussain Bukhari here.
Responding to senator Farhatullah Babar, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) senator Raja Zafrul Haq said that the defence minister has clearly stated army not concerned with the trial of Pervez Musharraf and they should not be dragged into it.
Awami National Party (ANP) Haji Adeel said that the policy was not clear whether the government wanted talks with the Taliban or operation, adding the government seemed more interested in Pervez Musharraf’s case than restoration of peace.
When Chairman Senate asked Haji Adeel to wrap up his speech, he replied that he would do so, but those who were wrapping up the national assets, what to do with them. Later, the senate session adjourned until Monday.
