Shaukat Aziz Siddiqui

A Pakistani court yesterday dismissed a plea by the police and ordered them to register an FIR against two former CIA officials, including the ex-station chief, for their alleged role in a surgical drone strike that killed the family members of an anti-drone activist in 2009.

A Pakistani court today upheld the death sentence handed to a former police bodyguard for murdering a provincial governor who sought reform of blasphemy laws.

Sethi, a senior journalist, was appointed by Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to temporarily fill the post left vacant by Ashraf. The IHC judge, Shaukat Aziz Siddiqui had earlier stopped Ashraf from performing his duties, and had directed the Ministry of Inter Provincial Coordination (IPC) to appoint an interim chairman.

Former Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf was forced to flee a courtroom on Thursday moments after judges ordered his arrest, dealing a fresh blow to hopes of reviving his political career at next month's general elections.
