Lahore: The Pakistan Ex-servicemen Association (PESA) on Wednesday paid glowing tributes to former chief of Inter Services Intelligence Lt. General (Retd) Hameed Gul.

The tributes were paid during a meeting arranged to condole the death of Gen. Hameed Gul which was presided by President of PESA Lt. Gen. Ali Kuli Khan.

All members of PESA expressed grief and shock at the sudden demise of Lt. Gen. Gul who was one of the founders of PESA.

The deceased very actively participated in activities of the association in support of law and the Constitution.

The meeting observed that Gen. Hameed Gul was a true soldier and a brilliant military commander throughout his service who served with pride and dedication.

Even after his retirement he continued to serve Pakistan with unending energy and dedication and continued fighting for defence of the country under the oath he took at passing-out ceremony.

With his passing away, a chapter of a fiercely proud Pakistani is closed.  He rattled many a people during his lifetime but was a Pakistani first and a Pakistani last.
