ISLAMABAD: Mansoor Ijaz, the main character in the memogate, has
claimed that Interior Minister Rehman Malik is threatening him directly
and indirectly, saying, “He is ready to come to Pakistan provided the
chief justice held out assurance to him that he will be given security
and will be safe.”
A private TV channel said that it had
obtained the details of the secret email written to the chief justice of
Pakistan by Ijaz. It said that in the email Ijaz had written that if he
stuck in Pakistan, his business and family life would be affected.
Demanding
assurance from the chief justice for his security and safety in
Pakistan, Ijaz had set the condition that if he came to Pakistan for
recording statement before the commission probing the memogate scandal
he would return from the next available flight.
He also claimed that he had proposed to the apex court to lift resections on Hussain Haqqani to travel abroad. Online
