Confused
Aitizaz spits all his venom on Musharraf
Bureau Report
Lahore—President Supreme Bar Association Chaudhry Aitizaz Ahsan held an
emergency press conference after the Afgan episode. However, the entire
media and the national clearly observed that he was tense, confused and
frustrated person during the press conference. His press conference was
apparently based on one point agenda and that was to spit out all his
venom on President Pervez Musharraf.
The level of his confusion can be gauged from the fact that at one
breath he was declaring President Musharraf and the intelligence
agencies responsible for the Afgan episode but in the very next breath
he was terming the incident as a genuine possible reaction against
President Pervez Musharraf. The neutral political analysts termed
Aitizaz’s press conference nothing but a conference by a highly confused
anti-Musharraf politician who did not know what so and what not to.
President Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) Aitzaz Ahsen has said
that the attack on Sher Afgan Niazi was not purely done by lawyers,
because 60 percent of the people present there were not lawyers.
Talking to a private channel (Dawn News) he said that it was a shameful
act and that was why he, as a protest, resigned from the office of the
president of SCBA. He said that he tried to pacify the crowd but it was
all in vain as the crowd also contained non lawyers, which resulted in
this shameful incident.
Aitzaz said that he could not remain president of such an association
which harbours miscreants who commit such actions. However he expressed
the resolve that he would continue his association with the lawyers
movement.
Vice chairman Pakistan Bar Council Ali Ahmed Kurd has strongly condemned
the attack on former federal minister Dr Sher Afgan Niazi in Lahore.
Talking to a private television channel from Quetta, Mr Kurd said that
Sher Afgan Niazi was respectable and seasoned politician and lawyers
community honour Sher Afgan Niazi.
He expressed his deep concern over the manhandling of Sher Afgan Niazi
and said the attack was conspiracy against the lawyers’ movement. “Those
who were involved in the attack on Sher Afgan are no more part of
lawyers community”, he said, adding that he extend his cooperation to
Aitazaz Ahsan and fulminate against the recent nasty episode. |
