KARACHI(Online): Former Sindh Governor Dr Ishratul Ebad Khan has left Pakistan and flown to Dubai, a day after he was removed from the top constitutional position of the province.
Reports said the former Sindh Governor traveled to Dubai via flight of a private airline from Karachi’s Jinnah International Airport in the wee hours of Friday.
Ishratul Ibad said that if he had hurt anyone, he would like to apologise. He thanked all political parties, business community and civil society, as he said that all of them supported him a lot.
Ishratul Ibad hoped that operation would go on in Karachi until the last terrorist is finished.
Ebad Khan was removed as Governor on Wednesday after gaining the distinction of becoming the longest-serving governor of any of the provinces in the country.
In his place, the President of Pakistan appointed Saeeduzzaman Siddiqui as the new Governor of Sindh province, who will be the 31st governor of the province.
Dr Ishratul Ibad Khan had assumed the charge of the post of Sindh governor on December 27, 2002, being the youngest governor of the country. He almost completed his 14 years term in the office of the provincial governor.
Last month, Chairman of Pak Sarzameen Party (PSP), Mustafa Kamal, lashing out at Dr Ishratul Ebadhad said that the governor was known in Sindh as “Rishwatul Ebad”.
He demanded for his immediate arrest by the government and for putting his name on the Exit Control List. He claimed the governor and the MQM founder were the biggest RAW agents the country had seen.
