ISLAMABAD – The Ministry of Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs has not replied to the request forwarded by the Foreign Office (FO) around 15 days back, which sought its legal opinion on the issue of the US national Raymond Davis.
A source in the ministry told Pakistan Today on Saturday that the Foreign Office had sent a request seeking legal opinion on the issue involving the murder of two Pakistanis by Raymond Davis. The FO had also provided all the available record of Davis to help the Law Ministry reaching a conclusion on the question of immunity.
However, the source said the ministry was still indecisive and did not reply to the letter, adding that the Prime Minister’s Secretariat had again asked the Foreign, Interior and Law ministries to keep the correspondence on the issue of Davis secret to the maximum possible extent.
