Nisar irked by Quetta carnage commission report

20 Dec, 2016

That interior minister Chaudhry Nisar Khan has committed contempt is something that remains in the realm of speculation and allegation. Expressing his resolve to challenge the findings of a recent report by Supreme Court's Commission on Quetta terror attack at the apex court, Nisar claimed that he had offered to resign in the wake of Commission's report. But the prime minister, however, advised him against taking such decision. There is little or no doubt about the fact that Nisar has some cogent reasons to express his anger at the report. But he needs to be careful while making remarks about a highly respected judge.
Speaking at a news conference to respond to critics and present "another side of the story," Nisar also reportedly maintained that the Commission finalised its report and hurled allegations against him without hearing him, describing the report as "one-sided".
How could be it one-sided? It was a commission and not a trial court before which Chaudhry Nisar's presence was mandatory - even remotely. No doubt, Chaudhry Nisar is a well meaning person. He's therefore required to exhibit a lot of prudence and maturity in this regard.
