Former Pakistani PM Imran Khan calls attack on journalist ‘worst form of fascism’

 


Former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan called the attack on senior journalist Ayaz Amir in Lahore “the worst form of fascism”.

They took his cell phone and wallet and fled the scene when people started gathering on the busy road, according to Amir.

Condemning the assault, veteran journalist Moeed Peerzada tweeted “The Supreme Court of Pakistan must take suo moto (knowledge) of this terrorism against one of the most respected and uncontroversial media personalities. Ayyaz Amir is about 73 years old! “one of the most respected English columnists Pakistan has ever created! HRCP and Dawn and civil society must stand up.”

“I condemn in the strongest terms the violence against senior journalist Ayaz Amir today in Lahore. Pakistan is descending into the worst kind of fascism with violence and fake FIR against journalists, opposition politicians and citizens. When the state loses all moral authority, it resorts to violence,” Khan said in a tweet.

Seeking a report on the attack on the high-ranking journalist, Punjab Chief Minister Hamza Shehbaz ordered that the culprits be arrested at the earliest.

Amir, who has been critical of the Khan government, had also given a veiled search to Pakistani army chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa.

The speech in which he pointed out that Bajwa was in his sixth year in office and was seeking another extension had gone viral on social media.

The 73-year-old suggested removing the portraits of Muhammad Ali Jinnah and Allama Iqbal and replacing them with “goods dealers”, while referring to army generals.
