Govt Rejects Judicial Probe Talks on PTI Demands
The government’s negotiating team in an earlier sitting had reportedly decided against forming a judicial commission to probe the May 9 riots, reported on Monday, citing sources.
The Law Minister and Attorney General presented their output in the sitting.
The next round of talks between the sides will be held on January 28.
Prime Minister’s Adviser on Political Affairs Rana Sanaullah has said that the government will present its stance over the PTI’s demands in the next session of the dialogue. “A sub-committee will review the demands of the PTI to prepare a reply”.
PML-N member Irfan Siddiqui has said that no decision has yet been made about the PTI’s demand for the constitution of a judicial commission. “We will give our reply in seven days,” he said.
The PTI handed over its written demands to the government during the third round of talks.
The government will hand over the answer to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf during the fourth round of talks, sources earlier said.
The PTI presented its charter of demands during the third round of negotiations and called for the establishment of two Commissions of Inquiry. The first would investigate the events of May 9 and the legality of PTI’s chairman’s arrest, while the second would investigate incidents occurring between November 24 and 27.
