Sources have said that Brig Ali has requested the Abbottabad commission to allow him to appear in a hearing as he has sensitive information pertaining to national security, which he think should be shared with them. He has, in his written request, stated that he is the one who was most affected by the May 2 raid in which Osama bin Laden was killed.
The application from Brig Ali had been sent though courier dispatch by his family.
Brig Ali, who is accused of having links with Hizb-ut-Tahrir (HuT), had earlier claimed that the court martial is to malign him because he had asked the military brass to fix responsibility for the May 2 raid. Charges of planning an air raid on the General Headquarters using F-16s had also earlier been dropped.

May Justice Prevail.....Ameen
He must have been a Captain in 1998 so he knows nothing about kargil. This is a joke. This man tried to attack Pakistani parliament and now he is called a hero. We are so naive as a nation.
@Dr. Tashfeen bin Rizwan: yup.
@Ch. Allah Dad! As clearly depicted by the comments and the recommendations on the comments, once can clearly see that people conscious is awakening. No body can lie now and no body should do. @Ashok! Yes i have to agree with you,what these people did to our brothers, they still are doing the same thing in our Balochistan. Alas. the foollest of the fools rule our country.
my uncle is very nice person,we love our family,he is innocent
We love brig Ali
He was longest serving Brigadier in Pakistan Army
This is the time for more Brig Alis to come up and expose the dirty face of the top brass and to get rid off western puppets both in military and political sphere. Moreover, it is the right to CHANGE the system and to reestablish Islamic khilafah.
@Ch. Allah Dad
Yes sir very disciplined force. What happened when Sharfu made himself chief again and again. I guess then Mr. Discipline was on leave. Lame excuses and justifications.
Brig. Ali is sincere with his people and if nothing to hide then what to fear from.
All charges against Brig. Ali are false, he is the real man at least who had guts to stand before the servants Uncle Sam. Innocent Until proven
@ Ch Allah Daad writes (Pakistan) "Army is a disciplined force where every move of a serving officer and jawan is recorded and watched under strict scrutiny...."
....really?
...since when?
What happened to this rentier and blood money thirsty army of yours in 1971 when it committed genocide in the eastern wing of its own country?
@ Danish, Army is a disciplined force where every move of a serving officer and jawan is recorded and watched under strict scrutiny. No officer or Jawan can write such letters against his own organisation nor become a self proclaimed Messiah. He rose to this high rank enforcing army discipline on others but did not respect himself.
Possibly just a scape goat . . .but if true then, what about all those who have conspired against the citizens and sovereignity of the country and looted and brought so much destuction of life and property on the nation too!! Who knows what is what any more!
Is he real or is he just a figment of our imagination?
Brig Ali can Join Politics Too.
why ali ji trying to have a solo flight. You should obey the rules. You have no right to decide the fate of us better just take of urself.
I suspect some of those dark secrets that the military doesn't want disclosed are now going to come out in the open --- lets hope he doesn't have an accident before he testifies.
The commissions credibility is on the line. Brigadier Ali should not be silenced.
@Ayaz Quiet obvious. He accounted them on it, and now he is facing trumped up charges. The question for me is why link him with HT, why not JuD or some other Jihadi group? Why not even Al Qaeda or Taliban...why HT?
@Ayaz: well, cant you see him facing a court martial ... it is all linked to May 2nd raid because he raised some questions after the raid that many top officials did not want to hear so here you go ..not only lose your retirement benefits but spend the rest of your life in jail ...
If he does know the truth and it is something that differs from the current stated position of PAK you can be assured he will die of natural causes while being held.... the man is either very brave or a fool or both.
This is certainly a very brave move on part of Brig. Ali's family regardless of the allegations leveled against him. May God protect the family and let's hope that justice prevails.
Finally a witness who is an actual insider and privy to some real information. I wonder if commission would allow him to testify and will allow his testimony out in public.
How is Brig Ali most effected by May 2 raid? Was he the protector of OBL in Abbotabad?
If Yaseen Malik from India can approach to appear before the Memo Scandal Commission, why not Brig Ali can appear before the Abbottabad Commission?
The last vestiges of credibility of the commission rest on accepting the submission of Brigadier Ali and not to silence what he has to say.
What was his rank in 1999? What he would have known regarding Kargil and the coup that we don't know of? Seems like he is trying to cling on to anything that sticks.
well,i think there is something more in this case.Public have a right to know.
Great patriotic brigadier
Hero!!!! He should be given the highest civilian award once this is all sorted!
Now it's becoming interesting! Perhaps that's why Brigadier sb is being persecuted??
Now the picture is getting a bit clear that why Brig. Ali is being cornered .. he was a danger to the american agents in the military and political leadership and was about to expose their treachery.
If this is true, I fear he might die of natural causes while being held.......
interesting it is.Breg has counter attacked now.he has really something to show therefore higher miltary command is afraid of him..
(:
May god be with brig Ali
Now its getting interesting. He will never be allowed to testify for sure by this sham commission.
