Former ISI chief Lt Gen Rizwan Akhtar takes early retirement from army

[Black Zero]

Former Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) chief Lt Gen Rizwan Akhtar on Saturday requested early retirement from the Pakistan Army citing "pressing personal commitments".

Gen Akhtar, in a letter, asked for "premature release" starting Oct 9, 2017, after nearly 35 years of active commissioned service in the armed forces.

"I want everyone [...] to respect my decision and not succumb or resort to speculation in any domain. I shall be available for any service in the army whenever needed," he added.

Akhtar, who was replaced by Lt Gen Naveed Mukhtar as director general (DG) ISI, was posted as president of the National Defence University two weeks after Chief of Army Staff Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa took oath last year.

My guess, USA showed evidences against this guy so he had to resign...

I expect more on this in coming days.


Several other generals were forced to resign in past for having questionable links.

Regarding which issue?

It's all assumption at the moment, but reason could be his links to some banned organizations.

Could be related to:
Khawaja Asif's statement re "house in order"
Recent high profile meetings with usa
Current core commanders meeting (no press release of that meeting)
Coas staff's meetings in afghanistan


We will know the reality in due course.
