Ex-bureaucrat Roedad Khan said the then president Ghulam Ishaq Khan wanted to have former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto declared ineligible and in this regard assigned him (Roedad) the task of her 'accountability'. Former Interior Secretary and a close friend of Ghulam Ishaq Khan, Roedad Khan disclosed this during an exclusive interview with a private TV channel.
Roedad Khan said the former chief of army staff General Aslam Beg (Retd) had said in his address in Aiwan-e-Sadr that 'no one can separate the army from politics'. "No prime minister can function without GHQ's consent," Roedad Khan claimed, calling GHQ 'Pakistan's central source of power'.
To a question, he said he was neither a member of any election cell in Aiwan-e-Sadr nor did he have any knowledge of it.
