| Govt forms body to probe ISI 'funding' |
| 2013-11-19 |
| [Pak Daily Times] The Interior Ministry has formed a committee, headed by a Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) assistant director general (ADG), over the Supreme Court's directives to probe alleged funding of politicians by the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI). The four-member committee was formed on Monday, following Asghar Khan's allegations about ISI's funding of politicians. The committee will be chaired by FIA ADG Muhammad Ghalib Bandeesha, and comprises three director-level officials, including Qudratullah Khan, Najaf Kalli Mir and Dr Usman Anwar. The committee would begin its regular investigations from today (Tuesday) and submit its final report to the Interior Ministry. ISI's former DG Mehmood Durrani had last year told the SC that funds were distributed among politicians upon directives of Aiwan-e-Sadr cell head Ajlal Haidar Zaidi. |
