All behind Taseer killing to be exposed, says Zardari


LAHORE: President Asif Ali Zardari Friday said that all those behind the assassination of Governor Punjab Salman Taseer will be exposed and punished in accordance with the law.

President was talking to the family members of slain Governor during their meeting at latter’s private residence.

He said that Taseer wrote with his blood a new chapter in the history of PPP's heroic struggle against bigotry, tyranny, and obscurantism. Taseer embraced martyrdom fighting for human rights, minorities' rights and democracy and against extremism and fanaticism, he said.

"The supreme sacrifice rendered by Shaheed Salman Taseer will not go in vain," the President added.

Zardari also offered fateha on the occasion and prayed to Allah to grant the Shaheed a high place in heaven.
