DG ISPR clears the air over the Rangers deployment at NAB Court

RAWALPINDI - The mismanagement caused outside the accountability court in Islamabad earlier this week was a result of “incoordination” between law enforcement agencies and civil administration and not a “clash between institutions”, director Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) has said.

“It was an incident of local incoordination [but] received a tremendous hype,” Major General Asif Ghafoor told reporters on Thursday. “It was not an incident of a clash between the institutions. 

We need to improve this coordination and encourage a soldier rendering his duties.”

The paramilitary force was deployed at the Federal Judicial Complex on Monday, where the accountability court is located, stopping media and senior politicians, including some federal cabinet members, from entering the premises.
