Afzal levelled rigging allegations after not getting extension: Riaz Kayani

RAWALPINDI: While dismissing the allegations of Afzal Khan, Justice (retd) Riaz Kayani said the allegations were false and baseless.




He said Afzal Khan had leveled false allegations after not being given an extension in his services as he was not qualified for the extension.

He said that the personality of Afzal Khan was controversial during his service tenure. He said Afzal retired a few days after the elections.

Meanwhile, former Supreme Court judge Justice Tariq Mehmood said that people like Afzal Khan should not be encouraged. He said creating such an atmosphere now would be enmity with the public.



He said that Afzal Khan remembered all these things after one-and-a-half years. He lamented that the allegations levelled against respectable Fakhruddin G Ebrahim were regrettable.
