| 'Spraying Kasuri will earn me paradise' |
| 2007-09-25 |
| Khurshid Ahmad Khan, a Peshawar-based lawyer who sprayed the face of government counsel Ahmad Raza Kasuri black, said on Monday that he felt no remorse for his action and that Raza deserved the ‘humiliation’ he had been meted out. “I consider it to be one of the greatest achievements of my life, which, I hope, will earn me paradise,” the lawyer told Daily Times by phone from Islamabad. He added, “I am ready to face the fallouts of my action. I’ve no regrets over it, for my conscience is satisfied.” Khurshid sprayed black colour on the face of Raza Kasuri on the Supreme Court premises when the latter was coming to the court to represent the State in President Musharraf’s dual-office case. Asked about the reasons for his action, he said: “The lawyers have been tolerating this government sponsored person since a long time but when I heard his derogatory remarks against the lawyers’ community during a debate on a private channel, I could not stop myself from teaching him a lesson. Alhamdollilah I’ve done it.” |

| #9 I consider the time my friends and I got drunk and puked on an old lady's hedge one of the greatest achievements of my life. After that it was the time we were sitting in the park and there were two dogs stuck together......... |

| #5 And I may well be right. Khurshid is known in his community for his emotional nature, who once shot fired shot at his arm during a press conference at the Peshawar Press Club. In the 2002 general elections, he filed nomination papers as independent candidate from NA-1, Peshawar after the Pakistan PeopleÂ’s Party refused to issue him party ticket and he had to make seat adjustment with the Awami National Party (ANP). Later, the PPP agreed on seat adjustment with the ANP and asked Khurshid to withdraw his nomination papers. He complied with the directives of the party leadership and announced during a press conference his withdrawal, while injuring himself by firing a shot in his arm saying that he could even shed his blood for the late Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto. During the lawyersÂ’ movement in Lahore a few months ago, Khurshid entered the Lahore High Court chief justiceÂ’s courtroom and exchanged hot words with him in an open court. The LHC chief justice later asked naib of court to force him out of the court premises. |
