21 Mar, 2012

The Memo Commission on Tuesday observed that Mansoor Ijaz has concluded his evidence while Hussain Haqqani has not carried out the admission or denial of documents. The Commission observed that Haqqani has been granted three opportunities to complete the exercise.
However, in the interest of justice, a fourth and last opportunity is granted to Haqqani to complete the admission or denial of all documents produced by 5 pm London time (10 pm PST) on Wednesday. In the event of a failure to admit or deny the said documents by the said date and time, it will be presumed that the same are admitted by Haqqani.
The Commission further observed that Haqqani also undertook before the Supreme Court that he would return to Pakistan and appear before the Commission to record his evidence on four days notice. The Commission directed that the recording of evidence of Haqqani will commence on March 26 at 9:00 am (PST) in the premises of the Islamabad High Court. In case Haqqani has any security concerns the same shall be conveyed to the Attorney General for Pakistan, who is directed to ensure that Haqqani is provided with complete security.-PR
