Panama case verdict will be acceptable to us: ISPR chief

Rawalpindi (Web Desk): Supreme Court’s verdict on Panama case will be acceptable to the army, Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director General Maj Gen Asif Ghafoor said.

Interacting with the British media during a trip to the UK, Asif Ghafoor said allowing former army chief Gen (retd) Raheel Sharif to lead the military alliance of 41 Muslim nations announced by Saudi Arabia was the decision of the state, Radio Pakistan reported.

 “Saudi Arabia had requested Pakistan to allow Raheel Sharif to head the military alliance while he was still serving as the army chief,” Maj Gen Ghafoor said, adding that Gen Raheel’s appointment would serve as bridge to bring participating countries closer.

Maj Gen Asif Ghafoor also underscored the progress under its new anti-terror operations Raddul Fassad and added that the government was working on madrassas reforms.
