| My son was not a jihadi, says Janjua's father |
| 2007-04-09 |
| Missing social activist Masood Ahmed Janjua’s father Colonel Raja Ali Muhammad has said that his son had never admitted to having any links with jihadi outfits. In a statement on Sunday, Muhammad said that he had met with President General Pervez Musharraf to explain his son’s innocence. He said he and the president both belonged to Special Services Group of the army and he was very grateful for the president’s promised help. “The president specially mentioned me at the Seerat Conference.” “On May 31, President General Pervez Musharraf’s military secretary told me that the government had sent Masood’s picture to various parts of the country. He said that a person had seen Masood with a group of people. The secretary would not tell me where Masood had been spotted.” Muhammad said that he knew the government had the power to recover a person if he is abducted by an organisation or is imprisoned anywhere. It is the government’s responsibility to recover any such person, he added. “My daughter-in-law and I will continue searching for my son. We expect that the government will help us to the fullest in this search.” He said that Amna, Masood Janjua’s wife, was continuing her search with such courage that many other families of missing persons had joined her. He praised the media for giving complete coverage of this issue of fundamental human rights. He said it was fortunate the chief justice took notice of Masood’s mysterious disappearance on December 5, 2005. |
