Supreme Court of Pakistan addresses ISI and MI sternly

The Supreme Court of Pakistan has recently expressed its dissatisfaction over the report submitted in by the intelligence agencies of the country. The report that was submitted to the Supreme Court of Pakistan was concerning a missing prisoner’s case. The
dissatisfaction expressed by the Supreme Court of the country was because it deemed the report as unsatisfactory and inadequate.

The apex court of the country communicated to the Military Intelligence (MI) as well as the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agencies in the following words: “You need to take this out of your mind that you intelligence agencies are superior and others
are inferior.”

The missing prisoner’s case is being presided over by a three member bench of the Supreme Court of Pakistan of which the Chief Justice of Pakistan, Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, is a part.

The Chief Justice of Pakistan Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry addressed the MI as well as the ISI in the following words: “Who gave you the right to hound people? You are so insensitive to the human loss that the families of the missing persons have suffered
lately because of you. This is a big allegation against you (ISI and MI), you abduct people and after some days, their abandoned bodies surface.”

The MI as well as the ISI were being represented by their counsel Raja Irshad. The counsel of ISI as well as MI provided the Supreme Court of Pakistan with justifications regarding the inmates of the Adiala jail that have been reported as missing.

While talking to the MI and the ISI through their counsel, the Chief Justice of Pakistan also touched upon the matter of Baluchistan. The Supreme Court of Pakistan held the intelligence agencies responsible for the current chaotic situation in the province
of Baluchistan. More specifically, the Supreme Court of Pakistan held the MI and ISI responsible for the lack of administrative control in the biggest province in the country.

Not only that, the Supreme Court of Pakistan used strict words against the intelligence agencies as it termed them for being insensitive to the loss of human life and suffrage caused by their operations.
