Opposition Leader Chaudhry Nisar Ali on Tuesday demanded of the Supreme Court (SC) to also investigate the ISI’s role in the present set up and during former president General (r) Pervez Musharraf’s regime. “If the apex court can open the 23-year-old case of ISI’s involvement in politics then its role during Musharraf’s regime and the incumbent government should also be investigated,” he said in a statement.
On a resolution passed a couple of days ago by the Pakistan First Group of retired army officers, Nisar said that Musharraf’s remnants should avoid giving lectures on democracy. “Instead of making such sermons, they should apologise to the nation for their past role,” he said, adding that the group should be named as Musharraf First Group. He also asked PTI Chairman Imran Khan to stop giving an impression that the SC was in his pocket.
