| Liaquat Baloch gets two years in jug... |
| 2002-09-07 |
| The Anti Terrorism Court-II here Thursday awarded two years jail term to Liaquat Baloch, Naib Amir of Jamat-e-Islami for not appearing in the Court. The Court, meanwhile, exonerated Maulana Amir Zaman in the same case. It is recalled that the police had registered a treason case against Liaquat Baloch and others for criticizing Musharraf regime on its blind support to US aggression against Afghanistan. Liaquat is Qazi Hussein Ahmad's second in command in the Jamaat i-Islami. If he were actually to do the jug time, it'd inconvenience Qazi somewhat. I don't imagine it'll actually happen, though, or if it does it'll be two years house arrest, with time off for good behavior... |
