Editors? **te
 

In the July 10 issue of The News and Jang, a story by Ahmad **orani, under the title "Panama JIT 'doesn't find PM guilty,' but his sons" was published. This story on reflection was **t entirely correct.

The Jang Group has always taken pride in the fact that it endeavors to provide its readers with exclusive stories before anyone else in its own distinctive style. The Group's reporters have always strived to keep the readers apprised of events covering all possible angles of a story. The aim is to be fair and balanced with all viewpoints incorporated. The Group is proud of its team of reporters who have very rarely submitted stories that can be proven false or completely biased.

This has often led to criticism from parties who feel that their interests have been hurt. These parties accuse us of bias in these cases but applaud us when their views are upheld. They feel we are being partisan towards their opponents although this is **t the case.

In keeping with this tradition The Jang Group’s reporters have dealt with extremely sensitive issues like the revelation of Panama Papers and the JIT with great care and professionalism. They have kept the readers aware of all the twists and turns in the ongoing saga with great dexterity and skill. **t a single news item on these subjects has been contradicted or refuted.

Prior to the publication of the said story the editorial team questioned the reporter thoroughly and exhaustively about the veracity of the story. The team was satisfied with his replies and took into consideration his excellent track record before the story was allowed to be published.

Like all ho**urable professions, journalism also operates under a system of checks and balances. However, despite the best of intentions errors do occur in the human enterprise.

We as a nation are **t in the habit of accepting our mistakes. The Jang Group always proudly stands by its stories in the face of attacks if these are based on irrefutable facts. The Group is always ready to ack**wledge a mistake when it occurs. The reader has the right to k**w. Our greatest asset is our credibility and our reader’s trust.

In keeping with this tradition, the organization apologises the publication of the said news story.
