The ISI, through Attorney General for Pakistan Anwar Mansoor Khan, has contended that the court’s observations will gather the impression that the armed forces and ISI are responsible for such unconstitutional acts. The ISI contends that the observation about the involvement of armed forces in politics is vague as there is no evidence as such in this regard. The ISI stated that such remarks will be exploited by external foes in their propaganda war against the armed forces of Pakistan. Armed forces have zero tolerance policy when it comes to violation of oath by their officers. An allegation that an office of the armed forces has violated his oath of office is always inquired into.
