| Asma Jahangir: Defiant |
Lahore, June 5 (PTI): Rights activist Asma Jahangir today alleged that Pakistan’s security agencies had made plans to assassinate her, prompting civil society groups to condemn the threat to her life.
“Top security agencies have made plans to my assassinate me. But I want to tell them that I am not afraid of them. I will not leave Pakistan,” Jahangir told a news conference here.
“The mindset of killing progressive and intellectual people in Pakistan should be stopped now. I am not going to accept this mindset,” she said.
Asking the media not to confuse people in case she was assassinated, Jahangir said: “I have no personal enmity with anyone.” Jahangir said the information about the plot to assassinate her is genuine and that she had received it from a highly reliable source.
