The Riots of 1953 — Page 82
82 To Mr. Nazir Ahmad Khan (By permission of the Court):- Q. A statement of yours was published in the “Civil & Military Gazette”, dated 23rd February 1953. Did Kh. Nazir Ahmad, Advocate, see you shortly before or after that publication. A. Yes, he did see me one or two days before this publication. Q. Did Kh. Nazir Ahmad see you again sometime in March, 1953? A. Yes, he did see me a second time but I do not know the date. This must have been about a month or two after his first visit. Q. Did he communicate to you any message from Khawaja Nazim-ud-Din, the Prime Minister? A. No, he did not refer to Khawaja Nazim-ud-Din. He merely said that he had a talk with some important personages at Karachi. My own impression is that he had met the Governor- General. Q. Did he mention Maulana Maudoodi? A. No. R. O. & A. C.
