PTI jumps to higher judiciary’s defence on Arsalan Iftikhar case

What about Malik Riaz’s business links with the Army? Doesn’t that suggest something or only his links with politicians are worthy of insights? Afterall, a part of Bahria Town is marketed as DHA!!

Good move

Reminds me of news of the world and pakistan cricket Fiasco. How the Pakistani players were set up to take bribes by the news paper. But who won?

The players with all their “innocence” we’re jailed which the paper cont. to publish ( until recently , was banned for anther controversy )

My point. Even if some one is trying to set up Dr. Arsalan . He is an adult and should know and understand his position. He should remember the turmoil pakistan and Musharraf went through in past of alleged allegations against him.

disclaimer. I am a die heart PTI fan but believe in fair judiciary even if the verdict is against the CJ or his family. No one is above law.

Mr Khan: People live without electricity for most part of the day in the cruel summer weather. They are being crushed everyday by the soaring prices. The youth are unemployed, people are struggling to make the ends meet. DO YOU REALLY THINK THEY CARE IF SOMEONE IS TRYING MALIGN THE CHIEF JUSTICE.

@ishaq: Agree, it’s “over politicised” and is behaving like corrupt politicians, still wishes to be respected
@Paindoon: Yeah, it takes a ‘paindoo’ simplisity to thank someone who is mainly responsible for politocising the judiciary for his political designs.
@Nadir: What about Malik Riaz links with PTI and its so called ‘Jalsa’? What about Hamid Khan and Malik Riaz connection?

We should all wait for the honorable court to decide the issue and not make our own decisions. Once the decision is before us then we should decide accordingly.Recommend

@Ashraf P:
From the Article:
The PTI, however, maintained that the Arsalan Iftikhar case should be thoroughly investigated and Arsalan should be punished if proven guilty. However, the charges against Arsalan should not reflect upon the chief justice.
and the press release:
http://insaf.pk/News/tabid/60/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/11706/Chairman-Imran-Khan-calls-Arsalan-Iftikhar-Case-a-conspiracy-against-independent-judiciary.aspx
Ik has been wrong but not in this caseyour point of view and his is the same. And essentially correct.

@Ashraf P:
You might want to read the news clip again. That’s what PTI is saying as well that if Arsalan is at fault, he should be brought to justice. Am I missing something?

Recommend

@Paindoon: Only Imran Khan of PTI (not Imran Khan Indian Actor) knows the truth, rest of the world is stupid.

Recommend

Will the spokesperson of PTI explain what are implied and explicit meanings of
the statements attributed to accused and his dad;
1. Father is not responsible for the acts of his son.
2. I visited London with my family and stayed in flat during 2009,2010 and
2011.
London is amongst top five expensive cities of the world.How on earth a working
person can afford holidays every year in a city like London?

@Ashraf P: dont be a paindoo. did u not hear what rauf klasra said yesterday: CJ was given the option to resign or take back all the cases against MR.He refused so his Achilles heel (Arsalan) was brought to the fore.
if AI is guilty, he should be taken to task and not the CJ.
So IK is right to jump to CJ defence.
Hence, proven.

This spokesman of PTI has always been in favour of military rule throughout his career. This is no secret in political circles. Its quite funny to see pti trolls respecting him as he was a very well reputed and sane politician. This guy doesn’t have a personality at all nor does he have principles. But thats fine to the trolls as long as he is in pti. I cant even think of getting ruled by people like Shafqat Mehmood. He is just a opportunist. Shame on IK for including these kind of people in the party and even giving them main party posts. Such double standards of pti are making neutral voters think again about who to vote for next time. May god save this country from these hypocrites.

Arslan was not an infant who does not know who was feeding him? He has been corrupt since he passed Fsc pre medical with grade “C” and got admission in Medical college.

Recommend

PTI- Please wake up. People are not going to support you for getting in the way fort fair inquiry. When someone is getting graft, it is foolish argument to accuse others for trapping him.

Recommend

The PTI, however, maintained that the
Arsalan Iftikhar case should be
thoroughly investigated and Arsalan
should be punished if proven guilty.
However, the charges against Arsalan
should not reflect upon the chief
justice.

What a joke Imran’s response is. He accepts the need to investigate Arsalan and yet still blame it on PPP. Talk about contradictions. Imran has PPP-phobia. He is just too desperate to become PM.

Recommend

This is one of those things where it’s better to speak as an individual rather than in the name of a political group.
Such as:
Imran Khan says …
Rather than
PTI says …
As it’s not bad at all for people to have personal opinions of what’s going on. But, a political group automatically politicizes the judiciary further. Since they’re doing it with voters in mind, subtle or otherwise, it will catch the oppositions attention and then cause them to get in on it and so on. It also ends up completely derailing the point if it goes that far.

Recommend

What conspiracy? If there is a conspiracy against the Cj, then that is hatched by none other than his own son. He is the one who allegedly took favours and money from the business tycoon and by others in the telecom business. It is the CJ’s own family members who enjoyed those luxurious foreign trips. It is the CJ himself who looked the other way when it was all happening. It is the group of four journalists who are considered to be most close to the CJ -Shaheen Sehbai, Ansar Abbasi, Shahid Masood, and Kamran Khan- who broke this story to the public. It is the PMLN and PTI politicians who are otherwise considered to be the most ardent supporters of the CJ who first spoke publicly about it. It is simply ridiculous to say that the PPP is behind this scandal. There is no conspiracy against the CJ and his family as they themselves and their greed is responsible for this state of affairs.

Recommend

what a single track fixated minded party this PTI is coming out to be.

Still corruption allegation against CJ need to be looked at, that supreme court swept under the carpet a while ago and did not let it heard at an approperiate forum
Would Imran like to answer how Arsalan made such a big wealth in a shortest time.
Is CJ couldnt see the change of lifestyle of his son with luxurious visits abroad?

Imran do no support a tradition that further takes Pakistan down to nowhere which PTI is eventually going to face as well. Just a matter of time..Recommend

Imran Khan you lost my vote today. Sorry, I can’t trust IK to run Pakistan if he has no qualms about supporting greed in its ugliest form. I’m switching my allegiance to Musharraf from today.

Recommend

so IK doesn’t mind judiciary’s corruption but wants to throw democracy in the bin because of the politicians corruption. never expected any better from PTI :)

Recommend

It is good to stand for the truth, and by the truth, but in this country every thing is far from the truth. I would advise, in my two cents, for PTI to becareful in their stance lest they have to stand against this judiciary again for truth. It is the same CJ who sat in the front seat of Mr. Aitizaz Ahsan’s car during the campaign for his restoration. Now he cannot stand the PPP? if all this is not poilitical then what is it? There were times when the judges were never seen mingling with everyone, everywhere to maintain their objectivity and independence. Now public appearences is the highlight of their lives.
