Fazl calls on Zardari, discusses Yemen

Karachi - Jamiat Ulemai Islam Fazl’s Chief, Maulana Fazlur Rehman on Saturday called on former President and Pakistan people’s Party Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari at Bilawal House in Karachi.  Both leaders discussed the current political situation in the country and around the region.
Latest situation in Yemen also came under discussion at the meeting. Asif Ali Zardari said he will consult other political parties in this regard. PPP Co-Chairman demanded of the government to ensure immediate and safe return of Pakistani citizens stuck in Yemen.
The former president called for taking the parliament on board over the issue and take a consensus decision over sending troops in Yemen. “The government should convene an All Parties Conference before any decision,” he said.  Fazlur Rehman also agreed on APC.
Meanwhile, PPP MNA Mir Munawwar Ali Talpur, Sher Muhammad Balalani and Ejaz Hussain Jakhrani while expressing concern over the surfaced audio tape of Pakistan Tehreek-e Insaf Chairman Imran Khan Niazi and PTI MNA Dr Arif Alvi regarding attack on Pakistan television, demanded the  government to nominate them in FIR and tried in military court. While expressing their premonitions, they had doubted the ‘Third Umpire’ might once again meddle into the legal affair to save Imran Khan Niazi.
 and if this would happen, it would be tantamount to placing rule of justice under the disposal of the influential. They said that such an act would leave the biggest question mark on Pakistan’s history of law and justice and style of government.
“This would also leave the nation in a state of utter despondence and it won’t forgive the rulers for twisting the constitution and law of the country in their favour”, they said. The PPP MNAs while addressing the Minister for Interior Affairs Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan once again said that the Model Town Tragedy was compromised, both politically and administratively and hence the entire nation was anxiously waiting to see the outcome of PTI’s terror attack on PTV.
