Pakistan Army has once again come out with a clear stand regarding the events of May 9, but in this regard, misunderstandings and conspiracy theories were being spread, which have also been removed by the spokesperson of the Pakistan Army through a press conference. It has expressed its determination to deliver the clearity.After the November tragedy, social media activists and miscreants of PTI propagated through various videos and pictures that all this was the work of the army and agencies and not other could do so , within a few hours of the arrest, 200 locations were attacked on military installations. Major General Ahmed Sharif said that did the army itself make a mind against itself? Did the army itself attack all the military installations? , did we burn the memorials of our martyrs with our soldiers,? who showed the weapons in Qila Bala Hisar fort, when this was going on, who was propagating from fake accounts to burn more.
A misunderstanding was also being spread that when the Jinnah House and other military installations were being attacked, why did the army not stop the attackers? In this regard, Major General Ahmed Sharif said that the events of May 9 did not happen suddenly, there was planning and thinking behind them, their purpose was, they wanted to take a reaction from the army by attacking the military installations, with the reaction of the army, they wanted to advance their nefarious purposes, women were also to be kept forward as a shield under the plan, the kind of action they wanted. The conspiracy of given power could have been successful.
A propaganda was being made that the incident of May 9 happened suddenly and it was a quick reaction of the activists to the arrest of Imran Niazi. First creating an atmosphere of anxiety, inciting public sentiments and then inciting them to attack, the May 9 tragedy was a dark chapter in the history of Pakistan. What the enemy could not do in the last 75 years, the anti state elements did in one day.
According to the spokesman, May 9 was a huge conspiracy against Pakistan. It was not expected that a political party would incite its people to attack the army, a year of false propaganda for political purposes and lust for power.
Imran Khan repeatedly said that he was arrested, he did not know what happened on May 9. In this regard, DG ISPR said that the real responsible for the events of May 9 have been determined, they were the same people who incited people against the army. They were the masterminds and they had as clear as day in front of nation.
The biggest threat to Pakistan is internal chaos.Responding to the human rights violations and propaganda by PTI miscreants, DG ISPR said that the narrative of human rights violations was being created against Pakistan, mostly it was seen that terrorist organizations were creating this narrative. Fake videos and audios were spreaded for propaganda, social media was used against the army, statements were made by specific people using money.It was said that the army was committing atrocities in Pakistan, they went to foreign organizations and asked them to stop the economic support of Pakistan, they were making noise under the guise of human rights violations.
He added that according to the evidence and the law, the civil courts have transferred these cases to the military courts, after seeing the evidence. Civil courts have sent these cases to military courts, all these accused have full legal rights, they also have the right to appeal, these accused have the right to appeal to the Supreme Court,The Army Act has been part of the law and constitution for decades, the International Court of Justice validated it after full examination, punishment are part of human society, religion and the constitution of Pakistan, for us the constitution of Pakistan is the most important. 102 miscreants are being tried in military courts and this process will continue.People who think that they will escape under the cover of US support, negative propaganda or a so-called justice, DG ISPR while
dispelling their misunderstanding said,” To expose the planners, facilitators of May 9, to expose the role of infidels. It is important that propaganda on social media has become an epidemic for Pakistan, so it is important to bring these planners to justice. If this does not happen, tomorrow some other political group will repeat this incident for their nefarious purposes.There is no solution except that we identify these planners and bring them to justice,”.
The ISPR spokesperson has also told in his press conference that while the army has taken action against its serving officers, the grand -daughter of a retired four-star general, the son-in-law of a retired four-star general, a retired three-star general. The wife and son-in-law of a retired two-star general are going through this accountability process based on irrefutable evidence. The spokesman of Pakistan’s forces, Major General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry, has said that in the context of the events that happened on May 9. The Army has completed its institutional investigation, two inquiries were conducted within the Army, after which a detailed Court of Inquiry ordered all the planners and facilitators involved in the May 9 incidents to be punished according to the Constitution of Pakistan and the law. Punishments will be given, youths were incited to revolt by raising false slogans of revolution on May 9, the tragedy of May 9 will not be forgotten, nor will those involved and planners be forgiven, whether they belong to any organization or political party or why not by social status. The army spokesman also said that those obstructing the justice process to its logical conclusion will be dealt with sternly with the full support of the people of Pakistan, a reflection of which (public reaction) you have seen on May 9. and saw after the events. Anti-national forces were trying to create a rift in the relationship between the people and the army. It was decided that three officers, including a lieutenant general, should be dismissed from their jobs. Apart from this, strict disciplinary action has also been taken against 15 officers including three Major Generals and seven Brigadiers. According to the spokesman, the Pakistan Army and military leadership are aware of the May 9 incidents and there is a process of self-accountability within the army which is carried out without discrimination.The higher the position, the greater the responsibility. There is no distinction between rank and social status in the accountability process of the army.Army is giving countless sacrifices and will continue to give.
