ISI, MI accused of meddling in Balochistan: Afzal
07 January, 2012
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan People's Party MNA Afzal Nadeem Chan on Friday said that the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and the Military Intelligence (MI) were active in Balochistan while the civilian government had no say in the provincial affairs. Taking part in the debate on new provinces in the National Assembly, Chan said that everyone knew it well that who was in control of the Balochistan affairs, but no one dare say it in open. "I am saying that ISI and MI are controlling the provinces and I am not afraid of paying a price for it," Chan said. He held Punjab responsible for the separation of East Pakistan and feared that if the voices of deprived regions were not considered, it would be disastrous for the country. Chan also lashed out at the Supreme Court for connecting the Bhutto reference case with the alleged contempt of court committed by former federal law minister Babar Awan. "Whatever Babar Awan has done is a separate issue. For God sake, don't associate it with the Bhutto reference case," Afzal pleaded. End.
