| US hindered probe into General Zia plane crash: Ejaz-ul-Haq |
| 2009-09-06 |
| [Geo News] Former Federal Minister and PML leader Ejaz-ul-Haq has said US forcefully hindered investigation into General Zia-ul-Haq plane crash. Talking to media, he said Saturday I cannot point finger towards a person or a country over murder of General Zia-ul-Haq but US did not send FBI team to Pakistan for probe into plane crash. Postmortem officials were sent to far and flung areas, he added. |

| #2 Forcibly hindered = did not send FBI team? How utterly incompetent does Mr. ul-Haq consider his own investigators to be? |

| #1 One of those damned if you do, damned if you don't situations. US officials figured that if they sent an FBI team they would be accused of using it to cover up evidence of US involvement in the crash (ex-station chief Milt Bearden's book is interesting on this). And here NOT sending an FBI is regarded as suspicious. That said, Zia's crash was suspicious and may well not have been accidental. |
