Imran Khan demands open court trial of former ISI chief

Deccan Chronicle  

Islamabad: Jailed former prime minister Imran Khan on Wednesday demanded an open court trial of former Pakistan spymaster Lt Gen Faiz Hameed if his links with the May 9 violence were established as then "it would not be an internal military affair." During an informal conversation with journalists at the Adiala Jail at Rawalpindi, where he has been lodged since last year, Khan said that if Hameed is "indeed the mastermind behind the May 9 conspiracy, then the trial should be held openly," adding that the incident was a local issue rather than a matter of national security. "They'll make Faiz Hameed turn state witness against me," he told reporters and added, "The army chief should facilitate a transparent trial for Faiz Hameed." Khan also expressed concern that subjecting him to a military trial would damage Pakistan's global image, reiterating his belief that the matter should be resolved in a civil court, not a military one, as it concerns a civilian leader, not the army's internal operations.
