F.P. Report
ISLAMABAD: Former ambassador Husain Haqqani has said that reopening of the Memogate case is only political stunt and nothing more than this.
Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Mian Saqib Nisar, on January 29 had summoned details of the Memogate case while hearing a case related to voting rights of overseas Pakistanis.
Hussain Haqqani on Monday said after the retirement of Chief Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry, there were four chief justices but none touched the case.
He added that six years ago a nine-member bench had heard the case and questioned why just a three-member bench is taking it up now.
While referring to Chief Justice Nisar, Hussain Haqqani has said that he will not come to Pakistan on the ordered of Baba Rehmatay because his power is not existing in US.
The Memogate scandal erupted in 2011 when Pakistani-American businessman Mansoor Ijaz claimed to have received an ‘anti-army’ memo from Haqqani, the then-envoy to US, for the then-US joint chiefs chairman Admiral Mike Mullen.
The scandal, taken to the Supreme Court by then opposition leader Nawaz Sharif and several others, had led to Haqqani’s resignation.
