MULTAN:
Multan Division Commissioner Javed Akhtar Mahmood said that Punjab government wants transparency in construction of uplift projects. “Third party audit of all projects will be done.”
He expressed these views during his visit to Women University Multan (WUM), Mati Tal Road campus on Saturday.
He directed to portray the beauty of regional culture in construction of new block and maximum tree-plantation at the varsity. Punjab Chief Minister Sardar Usman Buzdar had given task to the Multan commissioner for completion of mega uplift projects.
Amnesty International in September appealed to Pakistani authorities to immediately and unconditionally release Hafeez. “Junaid’s lengthy trial has gravely affected his mental and physical health, endangered him and his family, and exemplifies the misuse of Pakistan’s blasphemy laws,” Amnesty International’s regional researcher, Rabia Mehmood, stated.
Junaid’s father tried to find a lawyer who would tell the scared judge why his son should be let off. He had to confess: “I found a lawyer willing to take the case but, on his first day, he was harassed by some 200 lawyers.” He still thought the judge would be fearless. “The prosecution, the witnesses and trial could not prove any of the allegations,” said the lawyer.
