Re: ‘Deal done’ - Benazir agrees to Musharraf’s re-election in uniform

I see no mention of the bar not filing a constitutional appeal against Mush’s re-election. It was the bar in the first place that made Musharraf sleepless in Rawalpindi. And they have already made their intentions very clear on this issue. I don’t see Musharraf lasting too long, Benazir or no Benazir. In fact,** Aitezaz **](WATANDOST: An Educational Blog About Religion, Politics and Security in South West Asia : Aitzaz Ahsan: A Lawyer who turned a Judge into a National Cause)was asked (on ARY) if he’d take up the bar’s case, and he said I won’t refuse to take up anything that doesn’t go against my conscience. A better read than this article would be to read what the CJ said in his speech just yesterday.

“The day Pervez Musharraf announces he is standing for re-election, the bars are going to strike, the courts are going to close across Pakistan, and lawyers are going to be on the street,” he said.

“It is, I feel, the end of the road for the military,” he maintained. “It is the end of the road for Pervez Musharraf. Nobody should bet on him, not even the Americans.”
