US based Pakistani businessman Mansoor Ijaz has again hinged his decision of visiting Pakistan with the condition that military would provide him security.
Talking to media persons in Bern, Switzerland on Monday, Mansoor Ijaz said that he has no objection to go to Pakistan but more important thing in this regard was his security, which must be ensured and Pakistan army can do this job better than other law enforcing agencies.
It should be mentioned here that Mansoor has been summoned to appear before the Supreme Court (SC)-appointed Memogate Commission on January 24.
American-Pakistani Businessman Mansoor Ijaz alleged Memogate scandal has shot tumultuous memorandum controversy in Pakistani politics.
Later, Mansoor called on high-ups at the US embassy in Bern. He, voicing concerns to be harmed in Pakistan, handed a list of suspects to the US officials.
On the other hand, Mansoor Ijaz’s lawyer Akram Sheikh has said security arrangements for his client are not satisfactory.
In his second letter to Attorney General of Pakistan, counsel for Mansoor Ijaz, Akram Sheikh has written that Mansoor Ijaz was still receiving threats.
Asking for details of Mansoor Ijaz’ security, he wrote that Attorney General’s reply regarding Mansoor’s security was not satisfactory. He also said the state machinery was busy in planning against Mansoor.
Meanwhile, Zahid Hussain Bukhari, the counsel of former ambassador of Pakistan to the US Hussain Haqqani, said that Mansoor Ijaz is not at any risk whatsoever in Pakistan and the demands of Sheikh are beyond comprehension. He claimed that Ijaz has no evidences, just claims.

  1. He shouldn’t have opened his mouth in the first place. When you grab the bull by the horns, be ready to have your skin ripped off your bones. Another idiot used and abused by the CIA.

  2. still dont understand why Haqqani trusted THIS guy of all people to speak on very sensitive matters. that is not a sign of ‘protecting democracy’ but a sign of incompetence and stupidity.

  3. Whether or not he comes to Pakistan, USA has achieved its object of weakening Pakistan internally so that it can get better terms of engagement under negotiation. In the process, Kayani, Pasha, Chaudhry, Imran & Nawaz Sharif have all rendered invaluable service to their American bosses. Our enemies always find people ready to let us down. Till the time we cleanse our nation of such enemies within us, we have no future.
