“Why would the national security agencies abduct Matiullah knowing the fact that he had to appear in the Supreme Court the very next day? Only Matiullah was the beneficiary of this fake abduction. He succeeds in getting sympathies of judges in the contempt of court case.”
The security analyst also criticised Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto and MNA Mohsin Dawar for visiting the home of Matiullah and showing solidarity with him. While talking about the career of Matiullah, Shoaib that Jan has “no standing as a journalist”.
