Imran should support Army Chief’s appointment like all other parties: Aitzaz Ahsan

ISLAMABAD, Nov 24 (SABAH): Senior lawyer Barrister Chaudhry Aitzaz Ahsan has said that President of Pakistan Dr. Arif Alvi enjoys no special powers with regard to appointing chief of army staff (COAS) as he can prevent implementation on the summary sent by Prime Minister Mian Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif mere for 25 days; however, nothing will come out of it. He said that if all parties have supported the appointment of army chief then Imran Khan should also support this appointment.
Aitzaz Ahsan said this during an interview with a private TV channel. He further said, “I don’t think the President will thwart implementation on this summary and former prime minister and Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan should also not make this matter controversial. A matter which can be dealt without generating any controversy should be resolved amicably.”
