Khurshid Ahmad Khan, a Peshawar-based lawyer who sprayed the face of government counsel Ahmad Raza Kasuri black, said on Monday that he felt no remorse for his action and that Raza deserved the ‘humiliation’ he had been meted out.
“I consider it to be one of the greatest achievements of my life, which, I hope, will earn me paradise,” the lawyer told Daily Times by phone from Islamabad. He added, “I am ready to face the fallouts of my action. I’ve no regrets over it, for my conscience is satisfied.”
Khurshid sprayed black colour on the face of Raza Kasuri on the Supreme Court premises when the latter was coming to the court to represent the State in President MusharrafÂ’s dual-office case.
Asked about the reasons for his action, he said: “The lawyers have been tolerating this government sponsored person since a long time but when I heard his derogatory remarks against the lawyers’ community during a debate on a private channel, I could not stop myself from teaching him a lesson. Alhamdollilah I’ve done it.”
