Senate for Transparent Probe into Karachi Mayhem

Islamabad, Pakistan News: All the political parties urged transparent investigation into Karachi turmoil during a Senate session.
Senate has ratified an amended bill regarding Code of Criminal Procedures while a Sovereignty Bill has also been tabled. Initiating argument over Karachi situation, Professor Khursheed called to utilize all the resources to unmask those behind the mayhem, while Tahir Mushhadi of MQM ruled out any political dispute in Karachi, saying that Taliban have entered the city to take control over it. Dr Farooq Sattar said that Interior Minister has assured the cabinet that he would launch judicial probe if he remained unable to unmask the culprits in this regard.
He added that it was not the time to resort to blame game, saying that such attitude might hamper the interrogation. Abdul Raheem Mundukhel, Ismail Polidi, Senator Zahid Khan and Dr Abdul Malik also sought investigation into Karachi turmoil. Arguing over point of objection, Senator Raza Rabbani deplored the screening of the Pakistani passengers at US airports.
According to the amended Criminal Procedure Bill, the sentence of the accused would be counted from the time of trial and as such his/her term would be lessened. Waseem Sajjad has presented a bill for Pakistan’s sovereignty and stability seeking certificate from President Asif Ali Zardari in this regard.
