No question of imposition of martial law, says DG ISPR

RAWALPINDI (APP) - Director General of Inter Services Public Relations (DG ISPR) Major General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry on Friday dismissed the rumours about the imposition of martial law in the country as 'baseless hearsay'.

Talking to the media, he said that there was no question of imposition of martial law.

He brushed aside the rumours about senior officers of the Pakistan Army resigning as a protest against violent demonstrations and arson of the state institution’s assets.

The DG ISPR said that the army was united under the leadership of Chief of Army Staff Syed Asim Munir and would remain united despite internal and external propaganda.

He said that the entire military leadership, including the Army Chief, believed in democracy and wholeheartedly supported it.
