*RAWALPINDI - Director General of the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Major General Asif Ghafoor **gives important statement over missing persons.*
*He said on Friday that every missing person in the country was not attributable to the state.*
“Our hearts go with the families of missing persons,” Major General Ghafoor was quoted as saying by the ISPR, following his meeting with Defence of Human Rights Pakistan’s Chairperson Amina Masood Janjua.
“However, we must realize that not every person missing is attributable to the state. Those with the state are under legal process.”
The ISPR DG apprised Janjua of the efforts that the government and security forces were making to facilitate families of the missing persons and address the issue, for which a judicial commission was working day and night, according to the ISPR.
He also apprised her of the special directions and constitution of a special assistance cell at the GHQ in this regard.
“Still many individuals are there as part of TTP in Afghanistan and may be in other conflict zones elsewhere,” the ISPR DG was quoted further.
