In-camera briefing

THE information filtering out of the in-camera briefing on the issue of terrorism the two Houses of Parliament received from top security officials on Wednesday is, indeed, not comprehensive enough. It appears, though, that the session was devoted to underlining the gravity of the danger to national security. Reportedly, the ISI chief-designate apprised the public representatives of the situation and, with the help of slides, satellite pictures, videos and maps, displayed equipment and other evidence to put across the point that a foreign hand was involved. Bloodcurdling scenes of the slaughter of captives by militants and their conditioning of young boys to prepare them as suicide bombers were also shown at the session.
