ISLAMABAD – Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan said on Thursday some political parties were blaming the Punjab government for Raymond Davis’ release on behest of the establishment. In a statement issued from his office, Nisar said the incumbent rulers were responsible for Davis’ release.
“The release of Davis will be remembered as a national tragedy in Pakistan’s history…. The rulers, to appease their foreign masters, brokered this deal in exchange for petty money…. The whole nation was sold to save one foreigner,” he said. He said the PML-N would strongly protest Davis’ release in the National Assembly.
“The release of US assassin is not a mystery anymore and we would not allow anyone to shift the burden on us,” he added.
