Transcript
00:00Brigadier-in-Chief, I will start with you.
00:02Sir, in the second most important paragraph of the press release on General Faiz's arrest,
00:10it was stated how he was accused of being against the Army Act and how he was given a reference to those activities.
00:16And today, the message of vested political interest has been clearly stated in today's press release.
00:23Is it clear now that the violation of the Army Act was actually a political initiative?
00:30And not only that, but there is a wider network involved in this,
00:34which includes the former head of the ISI, the army officers,
00:39as well as the word accomplices, i.e. civilians.
00:44Look, the important thing is that when so many senior officers are arrested,
00:49and they live in such a central department,
00:52against that, you have to get all concrete prosecution evidence.
00:57And when you get that evidence as a part of a court of inquiry,
01:01and you get the prosecution evidence,
01:03it is sufficient, the nature of the offense is very grave,
01:07then the decision is made.
01:09And after the decision is made, they are arrested.
01:11This means that the army is very clear that there have been violations,
01:16there are political violations, and then there is corruption,
01:19due to which there was also a topsy-turvy situation.
01:21Both things are coming forward.
01:23And now the three retired officers who have been arrested have made it clear,
01:27they have also been told that they were providing message,
01:31and the army has now decided to take it to the end.
01:36It means that whoever is involved in this,
01:38whether they are from retired military persons,
01:41or anybody else from others,
01:43who are in your political party,
01:46they will also be seen,
01:48how much damage was there, how much damage was to be done to the army,
01:51how strict is the discipline of the army,
01:54in the army, you see,
01:56how much damage is done to the morale of the troops and the discipline of the army.
02:01The army never compromises on this anyway.
02:04And second, see, it is a part of our ongoing mechanism,
02:08and it is a part of our strong self-accountability.
02:13These things have happened before in front of you.
02:16Three stars have been punished,
02:18one star has been given death penalty.
02:21In the 9th bank incident,
02:23many senior officers were given immediate punishments.
02:26But, of course, the method used by inquiring,
02:30and after that, now this is the stage,
02:33and see that everything is available.
02:36Only then was this decision made.
02:38Otherwise, half-hearted, you never do this work.
02:41And after that, the entire opportunity for clarification will still be given.
02:45Your demands for justice are met.
02:47You can hire a civil lawyer.
02:51Your JAG advocate generally processes this entire case,
02:55puts it, you vet it.
02:57After that, this decision has been made.
03:00And even now, there are technical officers of our JAG branch,
03:04who are with the court branch,
03:06so that legal proceedings are seen.
03:08And then this proceeding will take place.
03:10And I am sure that after this,
03:12the people who are coming,
03:14this information will be relieved.
03:16That will lead to certain more arrests.
03:18This is what is my personal assessment.
03:22Interesting.
03:23And Mr. Shami, according to ISPR,
03:25three retired officers were found involved in armed robbery.
03:28And then with further clarity,
03:30it has been completely clarified today
03:32that the officers were giving air to the unresolved case
03:35on the basis of specific political interests.
03:40Look, that press release,
03:43I have also seen it.
03:46You have also seen it.
03:48Now we will wait for the details to come forward.
03:53And whatever is being said,
03:56its evidence should be presented.
03:58And all the facts should come to light.
04:01Only then will we be able to make a point of view.
04:05For now, we can only wait.
04:08And this is a very sensitive matter.
04:10It is also an internal matter of the army.
04:12And it is also an external matter.
04:14So, we cannot make any hasty conclusions for this.
04:18Nor can we make any conclusions.
04:21So, we should request ISPR
04:25that as soon as possible,
04:28its details should be made known to us.
04:34Brigadier, the details will be made known.
04:37The court martial is taking place.
04:39It will be in a closed room.
04:41The details that are being said,
04:43to what extent will these details be shared?
04:45And how long can General Faiz Ameed be sentenced?
04:48These new arrests that are taking place,
04:50how important are they to you?
04:52Because the network has been mentioned in this.
04:56It has been clearly stated that
04:58the Pagam Rasani was a network, a group of retired officers.
05:01And to what extent was this?
05:03When you do 2 plus 2,
05:05you will come to know in the inquiry.
05:07And they will also be called,
05:09those who will be involved.
05:11But the thing is, when this court martial takes place,
05:14if you check, I think,
05:16there is the Pakistan Army Act 55,
05:18and all the other acts that have been framed.
05:20In that, I think, the punishment,
05:22I am not sure,
05:24it can go up to 14 years.
05:26Like the three-star general,
05:28he has been sentenced for 14 years.
05:30But it depends on the gravity of the offense.
05:32If the gravity of the offense is less,
05:34and you have violated it,
05:36then the punishment will be less.
05:38And if the gravity of the offense is very high,
05:41then that is the upper limit.
05:43So within this, it has to be decided by the law.
05:45You are saying the upper limit is 14 years.
05:47This is what I think.
05:49I am not sure,
05:51but according to my understanding,
05:53the maximum punishment is 31 years.
05:55Okay, Mr. Shami,
05:57last day, Imran Khan
05:59said that he has nothing to do with Faiz Hamid.
06:01But today, he is saying that
06:03Faiz Hamid was our founder,
06:05whom we have wasted.
06:07Is he creating more problems for himself?
06:09I think, as far as he has said
06:11that he is our founder,
06:13or he was a founder,
06:15then he is talking about
06:17a national founder.
06:19Here, we do not mean
06:21that he does not have a community,
06:23or he does not have a personality,
06:25or he does not have a family.
06:27In fact, as a whole, he is our country.
06:29He was a big founder of our country,
06:31but he was wasted.
06:33He served the country
06:35in a very responsible manner.
06:37He was a very prominent member
06:39of the ISI.
06:41First, he was the in-charge
06:43of internal security.
06:45Then he was appointed DG.
06:47Then he was appointed
06:49in the talks with the Taliban
06:51in America.
06:53He played a big role in that.
06:55He also played a big role
06:57in arranging
06:59Pakistan's Afghan policy.
07:01He played a big role
07:03in arranging
07:05Pakistan's Afghan policy.
07:07If you keep all these things in mind,
07:09then they will be called
07:11a national founder.
