ISLAMABAD: The judicial commission probing the memo scandal gave former Ambassador to the US Hussain Haqqani a last chance to appear before them summoning him on April 12.

During the hearing, the correspondence between the foreign office in Pakistan and the Pakistan’s embassy in United States was scrutinised.

The Foreign Office informed the commission that Haqqani unofficially visited London last year in May, without notifying the embassy there,  when he was heading Pakistan's diplomatic mission in Washington.

The commission ordered Haqqani to appear before them with his Blackberry sets and other documents on April 12.

The commission proposed four options to bring Haqqani back to Pakistan.

The options proposed were: issuance of arrest warrants, registration of a criminal case, seizing Haqqani’s assets and initiating contempt of court proceedings.

On April 5, the memo commission had directed former ambassador to the US Husain Haqqani to give his consent to Black Berry Company, Research in Motion (RIM), regarding waiver of his privacy rights for retrieving data of his Black Berry Messages (BBM) and produce a copy of the letter before the commission on Friday.

The Commission had also rejected Haqqani's application for adjournment of commission hearing on the basis of his health and till the decision of another application pending in the Supreme Court.

The former ambassador had filed an application in the SC seeking to record his statement abroad via video link as it was done for Mansoor Ijaz.
