Chief of Army Staff has told the Supreme Court of Pakistan that evidence is available regarding memo-gate contacts. In the affidavit submitted to the Supreme Court, COAS Gen Ashfaq Parvez Kayani has said that the news regarding the memo-gate are correct and evidence is available of the contacts made in the context of the conspiracy. The COAS also wrote that the memo issue has dented national security and lowered the morale of the armed forces. The SC had asked the President, the PM, the COAS and the ISI DG to submit their affidavits for the hearing of the memo case. All have submitted their replies, but President Zardari has not. In the last hearing, the Chief Justice has told the Attorney General that no reply in a civil case means acceptance of guilt.
The court had issued a written order, calling for a reply of the President, but the reply has not been filed. Meanwhile, PML-N chief Mian Nawaz Sharif, Ishaq Dar and Ghaus Ali Shah also submitted their second replies in the Apex Court. Talking to reporters, Attorney General Maulvi Anwar ul Haq said that General Kayani’s second reply has been submitted to the Apex Court. The AG said that COAS stood firm by his old stance in the second reply. In the affidavit submitted to the court, Gen Kayani said that all his earlier statements were based on facts and nothing had been kept hidden from the Supreme Court.
