K-P Spokesperson Denies Murad Saeed’s Involvement in Protest

Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Spokesperson Denies Allegations on Murad Saeed’s Involvement in Islamabad Protest

Barrister Saif Rejects False Claims About Murad Saeed’s Role in the Protest

Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) government spokesperson, Barrister Saif, has firmly rejected claims made by Information Minister Ataullah Tarar regarding the presence of former Minister Murad Saeed at the Islamabad protest. Barrister Saif labeled these accusations as “absurd” and “completely false,” urging the public not to believe the government’s fabricated stories.

Barrister Saif Refutes Claims of Murad Saeed’s Presence at Protest

In a pointed response to a statement made by Ataullah Tarar, Barrister Saif accused the Information Minister of lying. On Sunday, Tarar had publicly stated that Murad Saeed was present at the Islamabad protest, implying that the former Minister played a vital role in the protest’s activities. Barrister Saif dismissed these allegations as “ridiculous” and completely unfounded. Barrister Saif sharply criticized the authorities, stating, “If Murad Saeed had truly been at the protest and wasn’t arrested, then the authorities’ incompetence deserves to be recognized in the Guinness Book of World Records.

Saif also addressed the question of Murad Saeed’s whereabouts, specifically denying any claims that Saeed was present in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa. He firmly stated, “Murad Saeed is not in K-P, and Ata Tarar is lying about this as well.” According to Saif, Tarar fabricated these stories to distract the public from more important issues, urging him to refrain from spreading such baseless accusations.

Inconsistencies in Tarra’s Statements

Barrister Saif didn’t stop at rejecting the accusations. He questioned the credibility of Ataullah Tarar’s statements, pointing out contradictions in his narrative. He reminded the public of a video Tarar filmed shortly after the protest, where he claimed that no bullet casings were found at D-Chowk, implying a lack of violence at the scene. This initial statement seemed to downplay any violent actions, but now, Tarar was alleging that armed groups from the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) had opened fire during the protest. Saif was quick to point out the contradiction, asking, “If gunfire did indeed occur, how could Tarar have initially stated that no bullet casings were found?” He argued that this inconsistency suggested an attempt to hide the truth. 

Questions About the Blackout and the Praying Incident

Further intensifying his criticism of Tarar’s statements, Barrister Saif raised concerns about the events surrounding the protest, notably the blackout that occurred during the night. He demanded clarification on who was responsible for this blackout, which he believed was part of a more significant effort to manipulate the narrative. In addition, Saif questioned the incident involving a person who was allegedly pushed while praying on a container during the protest. Saif also raised an important question, asking, “Was the PTI responsible for the incident where a person was allegedly pushed while praying on the container? These questions directly undermined the official narrative promoted by Tarar and other government officials.

Barrister Saif’s Closing Remarks

In a final critique of Tarar’s behavior, Barrister Saif stated that public deception through press conferences would not succeed in suppressing the truth. He said, “No matter how much Ata Tarar shouts, the truth cannot be hidden.” Saif condemned the tactic of blaming others for actions that, in his view, were self-inflicted. He also drew parallels between this incident and the infamous Model Town tragedy, where innocent PTI workers were allegedly blamed for the violent actions of others. Saif’s remarks highlighted his belief that the government’s attempts to mislead the public would fail as the truth would always prevail.

Conclusion

Barrister Saif’s statements reflect a deep frustration with the current narrative being pushed by the government and its officials. By pointing out the inconsistencies in Ataullah Tarar’s claims, Saif has raised important questions about the integrity of the information being disseminated to the public. His call for transparency and honesty in addressing these issues continues to resonate, as the situation around the Islamabad protest remains a topic of heated debate.
