Former Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani on Monday visited the headquarters of intelligence agency, ISI, to discuss the abduction of his son. Gilani met DG ISI Lieutenant General Rizwan Akhtar and briefed him about his telephonic conversation with Ali Haider Gilani. DG ISI assured Gilani full co-operation from the intelligence agency. He also informed the DG ISI about discussion with Afghan officials.
Ali Haider Gilani, the son of former prime minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani, who was kidnapped from Multan in 2013, spoke to his father via telephone from Afghanistan on Sunday. The telephone call was made from Afghanistan by kidnappers who spoke to Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani before allowing his son to speak to his father. It was Ali Haider Gilani's first contact with his family in two years since he was kidnapped by the gunmen during an election rally in Multan on May 9, 2013. While talking to the media at his residence in Multan on Monday, Gilani lauded the efforts made by the Afghan government in tracing out his son and stated that an agreement has been signed with al Qaeda for Ali Haider's conditional release.
