Gen Bajwa threatened to impose martial law, reveals Khawaja Asif
|
[GEO.TV] Defence Minister Khawaja Asif on Thursday said former chief of army staff General (retd) Qamar Javed Bajwa had threatened to impose martial law in the country as he sought an extension in his term for the second time in November 2022.
The Pakistain Moslem League-Nawaz (PML-N) big shot said this in response to a statement by Punjab
1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard
2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers
3.) A province of India. It is majority (60 percent) Sikh and Hindoo (37 percent), which means it has relatively few Moslem riots....
Assembly Speaker Malik Ahmed Khan who told the media that Bajwa, who is his close friend, did not seek an extension.
A day earlier, the PA speaker, who also belongs to PML-N, recalled his meeting with the former serviceman in the US embassy where Bajwa denied rumours that he wanted an extension.
He indicated that it was possible that some details might have slipped Khawaja Asif's mind.
Speaking on Geo News show 'Capital Talk', Asif said that he has a sound memory. "It is quite possible that I may not be able to recall things of near past. But, I absolutely retain all past memories," he stressed.
"General Bajwa had said in a sitting that he would impose martial law in the country," the defence minister asserted.
Asif said that he and Malik Ahmed are speaking about separate situations, adding that there is no difference between what both of them are saying.
General (retd) Bajwa, he remarked, had been demanding an extension of six months to one year "as part of a temporary arrangement" to defuse a deadlock.
Speaking on Geo News show Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Kay Sath today, the Punjab assembly speaker reiterated that Gen (retd) Bajwa without mincing his words stated during his official US trip that he would not seek extension in his term.
"I am an old soldier and an old soldier fades away," Malik Ahmed recalled the quote of the former army chief, saying that Gen (retd) on many occasions reiterated the same stance that he was not seeking an extension.
Moreover, he said Bajwa believed that the General Sahir Shamshad Mirza and General Asim Munir should be appointed to the top posts of army chief and Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee.
