According to a report, Mansoor Ijaz is now accusing DG ISI of plotting a coup against the civilian government.
About a quarter of the way down the purported BBM exchange between Ijaz and Husain Haqqani, the American businessman proffers an eyebrow-elevating tip. Some hours after the memo was delivered, Ijaz tells his alleged co-conspirator that he has learned of a clandestine effort to evict Asif Ali Zardari from Islamabad’s presidential palace.
“I was just informed by senior US intel,” Ijaz writes in a message on May 10, “that GD-SII Mr P asked for, and received permission, from senior Arab leaders a few days ago to sack Z. For what its worth.” It’s worth a great deal, if only because it carries the same weight as what else appears in the apparently incriminating exchange. In his hasty typing, where he manages to turn “DG-ISI” into an anagram, Ijaz was saying that top American spooks have told him that Lieut. Gen. Ahmed Shuja Pasha secured a green light from Gulf potentates to overthrow the government.
It is already reported that Mansoor Ijaz offered to be India’s agent in the past and was a special guest of NDA also. Many have suspected that this clever schemer has been up to something since he has always been terming Pakistani military as terrorists. Now the cat is out of the bag and it is revealed his true target is the military leadership who he wishes to slander as treasonous coup makers. Obviously there is no evidence to support accusations of coup plotting against the military leadership other than the word of one disgraced foreigner who is possibly on the payroll of multiple foreign agencies. Certainly this is why Gen Pasha visited Ijaz in his hotel and sized him up to be the schemer that he is and then returned to Pakistan to report on his plot. Not wishing to create a reaction from the public who will always stand by their forces, Gen Pasha must have told the leadership ‘in-camera’ about Ijaz’s scheming so that it is not allowed to affect the sensitivities of the masses.
Now that Mansoor Ijaz plot has been revealed Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar should kindly request the US intelligence to arrest their citizen for plotting against a sovereign nation and a supposed ally and a message should be delivered to India that such cheap attempts will never succeed against a united Pakistan.
