Remembering Salmaan Taseer

Letter May 31, 2013
He was indeed a very bold and courageous man, but more than that he was very principled.

TORONTO: This is with reference to Sara Taseer’s article “A tribute to Salmaan Taseer” (May 31). I was fortunate to have worked in Mr Taseer’s company KPMG Taseer Hadi’s Lahore office, when he had just come back from Abu Dhabi. He was indeed a very bold and courageous man, but more than that he was very principled, did not know what was ‘political correctness’, said things the way he saw them, and not how they should be said. May God grant him eternal peace and keep his family safe.
