A week ago Malik Riyaz stated in the Supreme Court that he met with Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudary at his request during the time when Chief Justice was inactivated from his post and a movement was going on to re-instate him.

Malik Riyaz further stated that he helped the movement whatever way he could. I read his statement as, he invested money to help them to achieve the movement’s objectives with the belief he would get some benefit later. If this is true then Chief Justice along with Aitazaz Ahsan and Ali Ahmed Kurd should be asked what Malik Riyaz’s contribution to the movement was?

Another person who really got the benefit of the return of Chief Justices is Nawaz Sharif of PML-N. His case was reverted and he was declared innocent in plane hijack case. Chief Justice was and is against Pervaiz Musharraf. Nawaz Sharif was and is against Pervaiz Musharraf. Did Nawaz Sharif also invest money in this movement? It was called lawyers’ movement. We think lawyers were used at the front to meet the objectives of others like Nawaz Sharif. So nobody should have any doubt on the collusion against Pervez Musharraf of these two men.

During the last Hajj season a plane load of journalists, TV anchors and others was paid by Malik Riyaz. That should also be investigated. Dr. Shahid Masood and others have openly said on TV programs that it should be investigated and suggested journalists should do this job by themselves to show their hoesty instead of any commission or court that which journalist is on who’s payroll.
Journalists were also given land plots by the PPP governments.
Did the journalists returned this favor in pro-PPP government
programs, comments and reports?

Recently, a couple of incidents happened a journalist blamed another of his colleagues that he accepted some sort of favor etc. That is good. Probably this is one way to know the truth but our best guess is that journalists will not speak out the truth.
There is another very easy way for public to guess and in fact judge the affiliation of journalists and TV anchors.  Here are few examples which you may have come across and draw your own conclusions.

A TV anchor praised Benazir Income Support program while everybody knows this is one of the scams PPP is running.
A TV anchor praised Nawaz Sharif for his contribution to democracy while everybody knows he is the person who attacked Supreme Court building in his time. He is also a coward person who ran away from Pakistan. Sharif family signed a document before escaping to Saudi Arabia but later denied. In other words he lied that he has not signed any papers to stay away from Pakistan for ten years until Saad Hariri and Chief Intelligence of Saudi Arabia came to Pakistan and showed the agreement in a press conference.

A TV anchor asked Imran Khan how you can be successful; your party is a one man show. She was one of the persons who went to Hajj on PPP expenses. She admitted in another program when the host cornered her. Listen to her answer. She said she thought this trip is arranged and paid by Saudi government.
