Saleem Shehzad's murder: ISPR terms HRW report extremely derogatory, biased

17 Feb, 2012

A spokes-man of ISPR said on Thursday that the press release issued by Human Rights Watch (HRW) New York on January 30, 2012, has been found to be extremely derogatory, biased and contradictory in terms.
In one stroke Brad Adams has discredited the Judicial Commission that investigated Saleem Shehzad's alleged murder, demonised the ISI and castigated the Government of Pakistan, going on to suggest a darker destination of evidence if pursued again. It is unclear where Adams forms opinions like these from, but one thing is evident that his thought process and ability to logically analyse a given situation suffers from serious bias.
The spokesman, through a press release issued here, added that the Judicial Commission in question was headed by a very honourable Judge of the same Supreme Court of Pakistan which is highly respected for its integrity and courage of conviction. It is not without reason that the Supreme Court of Pakistan is the guarantor of the rule of law and the architect of constitutional future of our country.
To expect the Judicial Commission probing Saleem Shehzad's alleged murder headed by Honourable Justice Saqib Nisar, to spare or shy away form the so-called culpable ISI is not only disrespectful but also out of character of the Honourable Court.
