Islamabad, Nov 12 (ANI): Former Pakistan Air Commodore and Researcher, Tariq Majid, has revealed that former Dictator Ayub Khan was a chicken-hearted general who took many wrong decisions in haste out of fear.
According to Tariq, the dissolution of inquiry committee on the Agarthalla conspiracy case by Khan and handing over of power to general Yahya were just two examples to prove that he was not a man of strong nerves, The Nation reports.
He further disclosed that Sheikh Mujeebur Rehman courted arrest in line with plans made by the US and India and he was kept at a safe place, as the two countries wanted to keep him alive.
He further claimed that former Prime Minister Z.A Bhutto had the backing of America and India when he sent commandos inside Kashmir under a conspiracy.
The US forced Pakistan to accept a ceasefire in the 1965 war in India's favour, Tariq said, accusing Bhutto of playing a negative role in the wars of 1965 and 1971. He was of the view that America wanted to use politicians to reduce military strength of Pakistan. (ANI)
