ISLAMABAD: Minister for Interior Chaurdhy Nisar Ali Khan has issued the order for removing Dawn journalist Cyril Almeida’s name from the Exit Control List (ECL).

The decision to remove the journalist’s name came after a delegation of APNS and CPNE met the interior and information ministers.

The journalist was placed on the ECL following a story published regarding a high-level security meeting in which he wrote about an alleged civil-military rift on the issue of tackling banned outfits. The story was dismissed thrice by the Prime Minister’s house.

On Thursday during a news conference, Nisar said the government had little choice but to prevent Almeida from leaving the country after it learnt he was booked on a flight earlier this week, but added he was a "free man" for now.

Nisar questioned why the newspaper carried the story when the reporter himself claimed that every official present in the meeting denied its contents. The reporter should have verified the story from other participants in the meeting, he said.

The interior minister added that the contents of the story had given the enemies of Pakistan an opportunity to create a charge sheet against the country.

Don't know why this particular article made so many people angry. Stories about civilian-military rifts are commonplace in Pakistan media, so why did this story by Cyril become such a hot potato?

because he published in details and thats make it spicy . but i am scared they will take revange from this guy sooner or letter
 
media is Pakistan are wh*res working for highest bidder. Ganja & co should be treated as enemies of Pakistan.
 
Your country of Pakistan would be a lot better off without NS and his cronies. But then again, rightly or wrongly you guys have elected him.
 
No one can fight, especially the corrupt lot with Media where Media holds their secrets of corruptions and looted money. Once Mir Shakeel said "I am the one that runs the government and can bring down if I want to" that speaks volume. Cyril was used as an escape goat though still, the investigation is not summed up so the purpose was to bring out the traitor that twisted the news and leaked or given go ahead to publish.

As said before, Military did ask for any ban on Dawn or the reporter at all but emphasis was to announce an investigation about such treason and an attempt to malign the Military. Let the investigation be concluded though Cyril was a small part of the same. Not to forget here that, it was Military including opposition parties insisting for an Op in Punjab against criminals and all but PMLn has been opposing the same and did not issue the notice for such Op like carried out in Karachi due to its possible exposure and treason by supporting such lot of criminals for support in elections and other influential works.
