COAS suspends 'chain of command' system to thwart NATO's aggression





Islamabad - 1st December 2011

Today on Friday the General Ashfaq Parvez Kayani (HI), the chief of Army staff has suspended 'chain of command' system to counter any aggression. The Army Chief has suspended the  chain of command  system in order to enable the senior officers on the posts to take appropriate action in case Pakistani forces come under attack.

The decision would however be applicable to eventualities involving Nato troops.

General Kayani has also ordered the troops to counter any aggression with full force and defend the motherland against any assailant. General Kayani has also said that the Pakistan Air Force should have taken action while Nato helicopters had violated the Pakistani airspace and attacked the Pakistani posts.

In a letter written to the Armed Forces Chiefs, COAS Gen Kayani has said that the PAF jets must have dashed to the border area after the Nato attack. General Kayani has also observed that the communication of the attacked posts had snapped after the Nato attack. He said that now the senior officer on the ground would decide about counter measures.
