Islamabad: Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani has dismissed Defence Secretary Let Gen (retd) Naeem Khalid Lodhi from his post.
The move came minutes after the Pakistan army strongly reacted to Prime Minister Gilani’s remarks against its boss General Kayani and the spymaster Let General Ahmed Shuja Pasha.
He has been sacked over misconduct and for taking illegal action, said a statement issue by the prime minister house.
Cabinet Division Secretary Nargis Sethi has been given additional charge of Defence Secretary.
