Interior Minister Ahsan Iqbal said that the fabricated story about foreign currency bank accounts of alleged rapist and killer in Kasur child abuse case was a move to destabilise Pakistan and create hindrances in the way of the democratic process as general elections were fast approaching. The minister said that foreign agencies were spreading fabricated stories through social media to destabilise Pakistan ahead of the next general elections.
He added that the culprit of Kasur incident had been arrested but a baseless propaganda was underway through social media to destabilise Pakistan. The minister said that story about bank accounts of accused murderer in Zainab case was an attempt to belittle the efforts of the Punjab government for his arrest.
He said that the media and the Supreme Court were trapped by the fabricated story, which should be a lesson for the media to crosscheck before running a story. TV anchor Dr Shahid Masood in his TV show had claimed that the alleged rapist and murderer in Kasur incident was part of an international racket involved in child pornography and that Imran, the accused, held more than 37 bank accounts including that of foreign currency. The interior minister also said that those demanding early elections were actually conspiring against democracy and the country.
The State Bank of Pakistan has categorically said that the main accused in rape and murder case of Zainab did not hold any bank account. He said that whosoever including the PPP leader Asif Ali Zardari played a game to dislodge an elected government actually did injustice to the people of Balochistan and Pakistan. At a time when some enemies were raising the slogan of independent Balochistan, it was inappropriate to dislodge the government, the interior minister said.
It is unfortunate that political parties are exploiting Zainab murder case for their vested political interests. Political parties are using social and conventional media for political point scoring. Political parties must end such political point scoring for their political gains. TV anchor Dr Shahid Masood who is associated with a private news channel has also made shocking revelations and gave new turn to investigation in Zanaib case. We hope Supreme Court will thoroughly probe these allegations and if these allegations prove wrong then strong action will be taken against him.
