Hounarble sir ,
Kindly make it simple for ill readers like me , that how you see the use of BBC in Pakistani politics ?
Specially now adays ?
Thanks wishing you best of health & care !
Hi,
BBC has been used and abused by all the parties for their personal gains in the political or personal information arena and bbc has done the same to other parties as well----like bashing ISI---A Q KHan etc etc etc---same is being done by yahoo news cnn here in the U S.
Here one can face a problem is that this being a govt owned institution----. A TRUTHFUL news gets thru the system but this news is not appreciated by the intel agy's or other dept of govt and maybe considered against the welfare of the state---that news can be withdrawn or just buried and be allowed to fizzle out---like in the past many a times----for the pak govt---for mqm---.
So----for an average guy on the streets in Karachi---bbc is a fake news caster----it has lied many a times before and it has done it again.
But if the news is the other way around bashing someone else----well then it is true.
Now---the difference between this release is that it is not a bbc investigation persay----. It is based on a police report that has an interview----it is based on a hard copy of that interview and multiple other items.
The other items involve money laundering, weapons training, purchase of weapons, terrorist activities, dealing with Pakistan's primary enemy----.
The thing here is that is mqm strong enough to suppress this british police report---in doing so---will the state of united kingdom be an accessory to hide terrorist activity planning on its soil against another nation that they call an ally----would it want to become a part of the conspiracy un-wittingly----.
The issue of money laundering and supporting terrorist activity is not something that the brittish govt might want to hide or support.
The substance of the report is what it is-----BBC did not make it up----it released the leak----.
Just like in the fake degree scandal-----the Sheikh guy was vehemently denying any involvement----and later not too many good things came out of it.
This news is not going to fizzle down just like that-----the only way it will happen is if the pak military realizes that mqm will start an insurgency in Karachi and they cannot control the insurgency.
