Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa visited Lahore Garrison. On his arrival, he was received by Corps Commander Lieutenant General Muhammad Abdul Aziz.
The army chief visited Combined Military Hospital Lahore (CMH) and enquired after Major Haris who was manhandled and injured in a road rage recently.
"No one can be allowed to take the law into their hands," the army chief said, adding that the law will take its course and the perpetrators would be brought to book at all costs.
Later, the COAS interacted with garrison officers and veterans in two separate interactive sessions. He appreciated the Lahore Corps for maintaining high standards of operational preparedness and training.
He stressed misinformation and propaganda threaten state integrity requiring timely and unified response to stem the spread of such speculations.
He said any attempt to create a rift between the army and the nation won’t be tolerated. The army chief said hostile forces have been in action for a long time but they won’t succeed.
