ISLAMABAD: The Abbottabad Commission has summoned Pakistan’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom Wajid Shamsul Hasan, DawnNews reported on Monday.
The decision to call Hasan was made during a meeting headed by the commission’s chairman Justice (retd) Javed Iqbal.
The commission also took legal advice from Waseem Sajjad, Nasira Iqbal and S. M. Zafar.
Hasan is to appear before the commission in the last week of December.
However, speaking to DawnNews, Hasan said neither was he called nor could he be summoned directly by the commission. He said he could only be summoned by commission through the Foreign Office.
Hasan was also absent from Monday’s conference of Pakistan’s ambassadors and high commissioners due to ill health.
Moreover, Pakistan’s former ambassador to the United States Husain Haqqani would be appearing before the commission on December 14.
