Those stark facts and figures more than justify why Emergency was a necessity at this time to deal with the terrorist menace in Pakistan. Our high and mighty ex-CJ personally chaired the benches that ordered the release of scores of so-called “missing persons” who were in reality hardened terrorists. Other benches he set up that released terrorists the govt had arrested after the Lal Masjid operation. While some of our media were just egging on the judges because of the animosity to the govt. This situation was getting out of hand, and the Emergency suitably took care of it, and now the govt will be able to devote it’s full energy on hunting down the terrorist scum.
