He said that on the same day he received unknown threatening phone call that “you (Hamid Mir) might have received our message”.
About identification of the attackers, Hamid Mir said that he could not single out who was involved in it.
He said that there was opinion that Taliban might be involved in it as he and his organization were supporters of Swat operation, but the question was why Taliban attacked his children’ vehicle instead of me.
He said that it was also being said that intelligence agencies might be involved as they want; he and his organization support them in any deed during the operation, which was not possible for us.
“We want Swat operation should be against Taliban and local residents should not be affected” he further said.
He said that his organization had lodged FIR against unknown persons but police did not take seriously and said that it might be resulting of his or his driver’s personal enmity.

Dear Hamid Mir!
Some time your organization worker use or act in such a way which is un bearable for a coman person. They use the name of GEo and threten , for example if somebody has some personal problem he goto police station and using name and card of GEON launch FIR. After sometime SHO found that its not the mater to launch FIR he hold the simple man for a night and release They use the name of GEo in Police Station and take advantage to threten people on very coman and minior issues. May allah save GEO with those internal amatures who are distroying the GEO roylity, name and fame.
