“I can’t understand the logic behind the move.”
“You don’t need logic but understand filial sentiment as far as the decision of the children of The Man Who Must Remain Nameless and Faceless to announce they will visit Pakistan and…”
“He has been in jail for around two years and my question is…”
“Tempers are running high and there is talk of not issuing them a visa and if they land up in the country to arrest them on charge of inciting violence…”
