Controversial Pakistani-American businessman Mansoor Ijaz on Wednesday submitted his BlackBerry phone and “other evidences” to a Pakistan judicial commission probing the memo scandal that shook the country's powerful military as well as political establishments.

Ijaz, who had refused to travel to Pakistan to appear before the Supreme Court appointed panel citing security reasons, deposed via video link from London, and maintained that he wrote the memo at behest of former envoy to US Husain Haqqani after the killing of Osama bin Laden. Ijaz came to the Pakistan High Commission in London to record his statement through video conferencing while the three-judge panel conducted the proceedings from Islamabad. Ijaz submitted his BlackBerry phone and other evidences to the secretary of the judicial panel, the Dawn reported.
