Fresh reports of maltreatment in detention have emerged, this time concerning Justice (Retired) Tariq Mehmood. He was being served stale food and contaminated water, says this Dawn report.
“Hundreds of participants stood up to show their respect to the wife of Justice Tariq [Mehmood] and to show their support and admiration†when she made an appearance at the suspended GEO TV'€™s €œCapital Talk show on the footpath of Islamabad on Monday, says the second report.
The account she gave of Justice Mahmood’s ordeal in detention since the 3 November martial law moved the audience to tears, it adds. "€œAs his health condition deteriorated in the Sahiwal jail, Tariq Mahmood who is said to have developed severe back pain has now been rushed to a Lahore hospital for his medical tests."
