Badin: Former National Assembly speaker Dr Fehmida Mirza arrived back in Badin, where her husband and former Sindh Home Minister Dr. Zulfiqar Mirza received her at his farm house today.
Dr. Fehmida Mirza communicated with police personnel stationed outside the farmhouse in order to sound them out, about the purpose of their deployment outside her house. However, she failed to elicit the appropriate answer from them.
She was videotaped while talking to a policeman sitting in a police van, “I am asking you to move out from the front of my house.” On her query about the purpose of their heavy presence, a policeman uttered, “We suppose we are here for your security.” She responded, “I got your security. Purpose has been served. Now, you may leave.”
The first lady speaker of Pakistan’s National Assembly asserted she was not furnished with the security all through the way from Karachi, adding, “I was escorted by my own three security guards.”
She spoke to several policemen to know the name of the officer who deputed them outside the farmhouse, but to no avail.
On this occasion, she pleaded with the chief justice of Pakistan and chief justice Sindh High Court to take notice of the situation. If the harrowing security concerns persist, Zulfiqar Mirza will not be able to appear before the court. “Zulfiqar Mirza is being subjected to immense pressure so that he surrenders,” she pointed out hinting at heavy police presence outside her house.
