Darwaish

I was watching the dramatic developments regarding Chief Justice of Pakistan’s case on GEO news today and wondering how much more we have to see after seeing police misbehaving with Chief Justice and his family.

Little did I know what was in store for me. During Kamran Khan’s show, Ansaar Abassi - investigative editor of The News, Islamabad - brought viewers attention to a shocking incident which happened during a live Voice of America ( VOA ) radio show interview (Round Table) yesterday (Listen by clicking audio symbol below)

Not surprisingly, it involves our Law Minister, Mr. Wasi Zafar. We have often read various reports about public displays of misbehaviors by Federal Minister for Law Wasi Zafar. But this is quite unbelievable.

Listen to the abusive language after the 34th minutes in particular. But also listen to the tone of the discussion of the entire interview in general. This, then, is our Federal Law Minister in action. Its worth hearing.

The Federal Minister said all this in response to a story by the investigative editor The News in which he wrote about the Law Minister’s “long arm of law.” Apparently he doesn’t know the difference between long arm and giving “a big hand.”

Listen to the clip and judge for yourself. I am just speechless!

ADDED 14 March: Here is the video clip of the report on this incident on GEO.


(Report on this in The News).

    Hopeless, this goes to expose the real face of the current regime.

    This man doesnt even understand the difference between ‘called by’ and ‘called upon’

    I pray to God that things get better eventually and that educated and civilized citizens make their way into public offices.

    When some institution or individual person get mad with unbriddled powers . They not only blatently violate the constitution but it is necessary to subdue its guardians. Because if guardians are out there, they can face hindrance.
    If X ,Y or Justice Chauhdry are the honest die hard guards of constitution then they must be erased as well.But fortunately the totalitarest authorities ( General Musharaf)boozed in the fantasy of power, took it as light task as any other incident in the unfortunate country Pakistan. They thought as usual, CJ Mr. Chaudry will be finished with one shot. Probably this time this sugestion was given , by hired and then castrated PM, like Mughal Empiror used to do to the strong guards to make them eunuk before appointing them to Haram , to make them useful but the same time harmless. There are other Heroes of the nation , working very hard , as there organs are also stuck, like Information minister Durani, Law Minister Wassi Zafar , Sind CM Arbab etc etc. Imagin that when a nation has so dirty minded ,lier, abusive nickers as heroes like them what you can expect.Wasi( LAW MINISTER) has become a Rabbies dog and biting here and there innocent people and reporters. His son along with him slapped a poor passenger in Karachi airport recently who objected , because his son tresspassed the que, He also slapped a poor waiter in Islamabad hotel who went to the room where the door was open and he was sleeping with a woman. Wasi, 3 days ago abused a reporter on the Voice of America, knowing the world is listening , told him I will put my hand inside your family. Lies Manister Durani , being a Minister openly and blatently say lies, and at the same time say to media not to ask questions otherwise your license will be cancelled. CM Sind Arbab has asked his ministers to leave parliment untill you have cooled down the turmoil against the government or resign. He also blasted and blamed the Cief Justice for distroying the peaceful situation in the country. I am proud that Pakistan is the world strongest country , that being harbouring sharks like them , it is still thriving and existing as a country. It is the prayers of of some pious people which keep the boat floating.
    One and last thing: I am wondering that if there were no brave media , who could take the risk of their lives and property, we or anybody will not know what is happening in side this political Torabora.
