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.

  1. I’ve heard this all and I found nothing wrong with law minister response. There was no single question for which he dont have answer. Aitzaz and all others were just politicising. No fact ut talk.

    Sorry to say, there was not a single serious question from general public. People were not understanding that that was a talk show and they were suppose to ask questions. Not just to share their emotional feelings or to pass comments. Everyone has something to say.

    As far as the misbehaving is concerned then I would say that our leaders are like us. People are taking it as “misbehaving” but the fact is that this is our culture. What do you expect from minister or person from higher authority from Pakistan? Law minister is true picture of what we are as culture.

    People who saying misbehaving, I dont know which planet they live. You dont minbehave? I dont misbehave? No making it an issue that its misbehaving? Grow up guys.

    If you had any real factual question against law minister then it was a issue but misbehaving is an issue? Grow up.

    this is really sad. i find it shocking that mushy has still not sacked wasi zafar and he still represents Pakistani Law. Ansaar Abbasi was right, ‘kaise kaise maskhare hame rule kar rahe hein’

    Revolution is in the air…yet i fear it shall be hijacked by the same bunch of looters and corrupt politicians. Why this nations suffers alck of rationale and reasonable leadership is beyond me. Is it the society, the parents, the education policies, the politicians. the army…or maybe our favourite punching bags the RAW/Jewish forces/Qoumi dushman. Blacking out Kamran Khan today and sealing off Islamabad the President and all his men are trying to ignore the whole problem. Musharraf reminds me of Humpty Dumpty who is about to fall off the wall…and what a fall it shall be….

    VIVA La Revolution…

    Dear Lahori, I think this episode is far from over and I certainly hope that the last laugh will not go to Mr. Zafar. Indeed, it seems that he finally might have gone too far and is about to be axed.

    According to a report in The News today:

    ISLAMABAD: Law Minister Wasi Zafar is going to be sacked after President Gen Pervez Musharraf returns to Islamabad, a senior official said.

    “The president will be back after a couple of days,â€
