LAHORE/GUJRANWALA: The US president has demanded the release of US citizen Raymond Davis [color="#FF0000"]while the Pakistani government wants the release of Dr Aafia Siddiqui in return[/color], Law Minister Dr Babar Awan said on Sunday. Talking to reporters about the issue of Davis after his visit to the Mian Mir Shrine, Babar said, ââ¬ÅHis case is in the courtââ¬Â. However, when asked about giving the facility of a mobile phone to the US citizen during his arrest, the law minister told the media to ask this question to the Punjab government. He added that Shah Mehmood Qureshi was no longer the foreign minister so there was no validity of his statement about the US citizen.
