Mr Khan, apples and bananas are two different things and one can’t be judged for the quality of other.

Mr Aftab,

“it’s act of injustice metted out to one who has been fighting to secure justice” good line.

What about the injustice in Pakistan with Judiciary and others. We expects justice from our enemy but have you ever said a single line in favor of justice inside your own country.

No doubt, India is play filthy game because he is on upper hand but we (Pakistan) are servants of USA so off course we have to pay penalty, by receiving insult from all sides.

Syed Ansar Burney is denied entry into India and deported - it’s act of injustice metted out to one who has been fighting to secure justice for others. Some of us feel compelled to add salt to the wound; it is heart breaking to note that we can lower ourselves to this degree. It’s nothing to rejoice; it’s something to be protested and condemned. Must a man driven by his sense of justice and altruism seek approval of a political party, any party, to continue a selfless service to the down trodden and victims of denied justice?

Syed Ansar Burney is one of those rare Pakistanis who has been fighting for the rights of those with least support by anyone in our country and the region generally.

Burney is a great guy and is probably doing more for the release of Pakistani and Indian prisoners than both the governments combined - I think they just got tired of him showing them up.

By the way, he went to England because thats where he travelled to India from. When you deport someone or refuse them entry, you usually send them back to the country they travelled from. He was here in London for meetings with British Parlimentarians I think.

Ali, you must be joking to making allegations that Ansar Burney is a spy. You may have a better chance convincing people that Zardari is an Indian spy.

Sir,
As an Indian i feel bad about this whole episode. He is a former minister and just because pakistan’s present government wanted him not entertained, he should not be sent back to dubai. He should have been treated with courtesy even if present pakistan government wanted him out.
