BBC’s reporter undeterred, sticks to MQM revelations
4 HOURS AGO BY WEB DESK
Journalist Owen Bennet-Jones, who has created a political uproar in Pakistan with his revelations on MQM and India’s relations, claims his sources are authentic and he is standing by his every word.
In a brief interview to a Pakistani news channel, OBJ stated that it was against journalistic norms to disclose the sources.
OBJ refused to disclose the sources, and whether they were Pakistani or British.
“I am busy with my professional obligations,” he said.
On targeting the Muttahida, OBJ said it was not true. “In my book on Pakistan’s history, there are only two pages on the MQM. I have never targeted any party personally,” he said.
Regarding the authenticity of the news about recovery of a list of arms and ammunition from an office of the MQM in London during the money-laundering investigations, OBJ said it was true.
OBJ claimed that BBC is a very responsible organisation and will never carry out unauthenticated news.
