Kamran Khan, Shaheen Sehbai, Shahid Masood, Ansar Abbasi and Saleh Zaffir are Israeli agents: PPP

RAWALPINDI: The PPP leadership lashed out at the media at three different press conferences addressed in Karachi on Wednesday. PPP MNA Gul Muhammad Jakhrani said at a press conference that some reporters and anchorpersons of Jang and Geo such as Kamran Khan, Shaheen Sehbai, Shahid Masood, Ansar Abbasi and Saleh Zaffir were the Israeli agents and they were assigned the task to create instability in Pakistan and pit the institutions of the country against one another so that the Israeli desire to keep Pakistan unstable might be fulfilled. He said that it must be investigated how they were roaming about in Merecedes cars while there was even no donkey at their doorsteps. He appealed to the journalist organisations to hold them accountable as they were bringing a bad name to the profession of journalism. Provincial Minister for Fisheries Zahid Hussain Bhurgari without naming the reporters and anchorpersons of The News, Jang and Geo criticised them and said that a section ofthe media was running a one-way traffic against the PPP as he was not in the know why they had malice against the party. He said that the PPP rendered countless sacrifices including Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Benazir Bhutto for the sake of democracy and stability of the country. General Secretary PPPKarachi Saeed Ghani said that the issue of Asif Ali Zardari’s character assassination was raised in the PPP meeting held in Karachi on Wednesday which condemned a section of press, and termed it a conspiracy against the PPP government. Such elements were warned that they should cease to conspire against the democratic government and the president. Note by Editorial Board People know it very well that the above-mentioned senior journalists through their writings and programmes have unveiled corruption, price-hike and bad governance. Since the time when former dictator Pervez Musharraf attacked the judiciary, all these journalists have been struggling day and night for the establishment of a just system, restoration of democracy and the development of Pakistan. People remember that Pervez Musharraf had the same grievances against us and had levelled similar allegations.
