Was AAZ trapped by Hamid Mir?
In the famous interview, Hamid Mir very cleverly trapped AAZ by letting him admit that he (AAZ) was not going to accept Supreme Court's verdicts while the cases of Memogate and NRO were still pending. Whoever persuaded AAZ to appear with the talk show host did not do him a favour. Hamid Mir is known to come up with twisted questions or surprise actions which though seem innocent and friendly turn out later to be killers for the guests. We still remember what he did to Sheikh Rasheed just before the elections. It won't surprise us that Hussain Haqqani was behind the interview because he can be the main beneficiary putting the guest in a situation full of self contradictory statements. We also remember he arranged a meeting between controversial Mansoor Ijaz and AAZ in 2009.
