65000 ‘Raymond Davis’ in Pak: Ex-US Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney

Islamabad: Ex-US Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney has stated that there are around 65,000 people like Raymond Davis (security contractors) operating in Pakistan.

Cynthia McKinney said this while addressing a gathering in Institute of Policy Studies, Islamabad along with US Human Rights Activist Sara Flounders.

Human Rights Activist Sara Flounders added that these contractors have the authority to kill anyone like Raymond Davis did.

“There are around 45,000 contractors in Afghanistan while 65,000 in Pakistan. They are mere mercenaries, who operate to kill,” she said.

Pakistani Interior Minister Rehman Malik has been regularly refuting the reports that there are any foreign security contractors like Blackwater or DynCorp operating in Pakistan.
