Govt spokesman rejects Mike Mullen’s statement

A government spokesman while giving a reaction over a statement attributed to Admiral Mike Mullen has said that if it is true than the statement is extremely irresponsible. It will not help in investigating the issue, he added. He said government of Pakistan has already established an independent, nonpartisan and autonomous Commission to probe the issue. The spokesman said the commission had requested the people that if they have any relevant information it should be given to the Commission. If any one has to share anything at national or international level it should be shared with the Commission, he added. The spokesman said if any statement is issued other than this way, it will be considered an attempt to influence the proceeding of the Commission. The spokesman further said it seems that some elements are trying to use this issue against the elected democratic government and Pakistan. We cannot say anything except expressing regret on it, he added. APP
