An inquiry Commission, led by Chief Justice of Pakistan Anwar Zaheer Jamali, on April 11 ruled out the involvement of the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) in the attack on journalist Hamid Mir on April 19, 2014, in Karachi, reports The Express Tribune. The 41-page report observed that allegations on ISI’s possible involvement in the attack were based on ‘suspicions, assumptions or apprehensions’.After investigating the incident for nine months, the inquiry commission drafted a report which stated that, prima facie, there was a tug of war among some journalists and the ISI, because some media persons had told the commission that the spy agency was unhappy with their reporting. The report also observed that there was a complete failure on the part of law enforcement agencies to investigate the attack. It mentioned that CCTV footage viewed during in-camera proceedings of the commission clearly showed two individuals at Karachi airport behaving in a suspicious manner at the time of Mir’s arrival. Despite this, law enforcement agencies were unable to catch actual culprits, it added.
