Hello | 5 years ago | Reply What a way to start the New Year! Such silly stories make headlines only in Pakistan. Moreover, "The statement read that as soon as the Rangers personnel came to know that he was present in the vehicle they began to salute him." Only depicts how insecure or egotistic the person is.
