Islamabad :
Former Information Minister and PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry has said that no one can trust the police inquiry in the current situation, so my personal opinion is that a panel comprising Mustafa Nawaz Khokhar, Khawaja Saad Rafiq and Dr Shireen Mazari should be formed. So that an independent inquiry can take place.
Talking to the media in Islamabad, he said that Shahbaz Gul told how he was beaten and how much he was tortured in the meeting in Bakshi Khanh and Adiala Jail.
Fawad Chaudhry said that the example of cruelty and brutality set against Shahbaz Gul is now a part of the police record, we have also confirmed the pictures shared in different groups that these are the signs that we Shahbaz Gul had seen, we have also submitted the revelations of Hamid Mir and Aizaz Syed in this regard.
He said that the magistrate of Islamabad took a really brave decision when he said that Shahbaz Gul’s condition was different from the doctors’ report and should take him back to Pims Hospital.
The former information minister said that I think that the Chief Justice of Islamabad High Court should see his magistrate how far he stood against this torture. If the Supreme Court and senior judges do not stand against torture, then who will. ?
He said that yesterday Uzmi Bukhari gave a sensational statement that we want to arrest Shehbaz Gul so that we can get a statement from him that the controversial statement was given to him by Imran Khan.
The PTI leader said that no one can trust the police inquiry in the current situation, so it is not my party but it is my personal opinion that Mustafa Nawaz Khokhar, Khawaja Saad Rafiq and Dr Shireen Mazari should be responsible for this inquiry. Granted, these three men have an opinion on political prisoners and think beyond political affiliation.
Fawad Chaudhry said that these 3 people should decide whether torture took place or not, it will be much better than giving the responsibility of the inquiry to the same Islamabad police whose situation is in front of everyone, who will trust them. ?
The former information minister said that if you want an independent investigation, then my personal opinion is that a panel consisting of Mustafa Nawaz Khokhar, Khawaja Saad Rafiq and Dr. Shireen Mazari should be formed. will
Fawad Chaudhry said that there is no objection to making cases but torture cannot be allowed, today rallies will be taken out against this torture by the district headquarters of PTI across the country.
The PTI leader said that it is also very important that the faces of those who tortured should come before everyone, Islamabad Police is saying that they did not torture, then who did? The faces of those who gave the orders should also be exposed.
He said that I also say to the Chief Justice of Pakistan that the legitimacy of the Supreme Court and the High Court ends if they do not stand against torture. In view, this is a serious matter on which the whole country has to come together.
The former information minister said that PTI rallies will be held across the country today and there will be a central rally from Zero Point to F-Nine in Islamabad which will be led by Imran Khan.
He said that these rallies will also be against the closure of ARY, due to which there is severe pressure on our journalists and journalistic organizations, I appeal to the whole of Pakistan to join these rallies today.
The PTI leader said that the administration should not panic, our rally will be peaceful, rally and protest is the fundamental right of the people.
He said that Shahbaz Sharif should also have courage and condemn torture, we demand that other parties of the country should also give their position on the issue of torture and other parties should clarify their position on freedom of press.
He said that why the leaders of Muslim League (N) went to Islamabad to hide from arrests, they should cooperate with the police like PTI.
