The Author:
Salmaan Taseer was born in Simla in 1944. He comes from a well known Lahore family. His father was Dr MD Taseer, an eminent educationalist, scholar, writer and poet. Faiz Ahmed Faiz, the celebrated poet and Lenin Peace Prize winner, is his uncle. He was educated in Lahore, at St Anthony's High School and Government College, after which he qualified in England as a Chartered Accountant. Journalism and politics, however, remain his first love. He was the Pakistan correspondent of the Far Eastern Economic Review and a stringer for the London Economist. In 1969 he was the Treasurer of the PPP in Karachi and one of its earlier members. In 1972 he helped to bring out the weekly Outlook, which was suppressed by Bhutto for outspoken criticism of his regime. Currently he writes for Viewpoint, a political journal in Lahore.
