ISLAMABAD, April 21: Soon after receiving the No-Objection Certificate (NOC), former chief of army staff general (R) Raheel Sharif on Friday left for Saudi Arabia to assume command of the Islamic military alliance, dubbed the ‘Muslim Nato.’
According to the Ministry of Defence, the government issued NOC to Raheel Sharif after General Headquarter’s (GHQ) approval. A special aircraft was sent by the Saudi government to receive General (R) Raheel Sharif, sources told.
Earlier this month, Pakistan’s Foreign Secretary Tehmina Janjua made it clear that the Saudi-led 41-nation Islamic military alliance is against terrorism and not against any country. -DNA
