KARACHI: A clarification has been issued by the Home Department, government of Sindh, in which it has been said that “journalists were allowed to cover the proceedings of the case of plane hijacking” is not based on facts.

Perhaps the Home Department of Sindh government is unaware that not a single journalist was allowed to the courtroom of the judicial magistrate Malir, and at the same time when former prime minister was produced before the Anti-Terrorist Court NO: 1 first time for remand all the journalists were made to go out of the courtroom before his production.
