Raymond – a God sent Opportunity by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)

I feel the public opinion is being molded in a subtle way by the government, part of the media and some 'intellectuals' in the favour of releasing Raymond if he otherwise could not be granted diplomatic immunity.

The USA with her immense political Click here to read Full Article
