Musharraf's treason trial

Re: Musharraf’s treason trial

I never said that water is dry, but when anyone try to say (or give impression) that water is not wet, I have all right to correct the person. :slight_smile:

Well, … if punishment is to deliver justice than as I wrote, Musharraf is not guilty of any crime. Still, if someone insists (against the constitution, law and logic) that Musharraf emergency was crime, then justice is not about punishment of one person involved in that crime, rather justice is to punish all who were involved in that crime, else punishment becomes victimization … that is not only injustice but it is against Islam too.

For instance, in any society, for same or similar crime, when one person gets punished and all others get away, than that is not called punishment but it is called victimization and injustice. That is why Allah destroyed many nation where poor and weak used to get punished and rich, powerful and privileged used to get away. Here also Musharraf is getting punished for crime he has not done, just because community he gets classified is weaker than those who want to punish him (same happened with Z A Bhutto). That means, if punishment is required for a crime of imposing emergency, than all who were involved in emergency should be punished … else no one deserved punishment (and that is, if emergency is illegal).

Anyhow, as for your second reason for punishment… that is about deterrent value, than it is obvious that Musharraf punishment (rather victimization) is for deterrent of officers in armed forces who may bring Martial law in future, and that means, persecuting and victimizing Musharraf is linked with armed forces, so prosecuting Musharraf is prosecuting armed forces.

You mean … army job is to guard frontier while Politicians, Judiciary, Bureaucrats and Police do all sorts of corruption, lie, loot, plunder and destroy Pakistan, make Pakistan a nation of beggar, violate constitution, and so on?

Obviously not. Armed forces are defender of Pakistan, who should defend Pakistan from outside forces as well as internal crooks and parasites.

If Musharraf was Buzdil then he would not have come to Pakistan, and even when he came, he would have left when he was offered to leave in October as well as November. But then, I believe, option of leaving Pakistan is open to Musharraf even today, and if he stays in Pakistan than it would be his own decision.

As for Musharraf believing that he is innocent, than it is not only him but most Pakistanis who can think believe that he is innocent. That is different matter that Musharraf is facing judges who are bias, corrupt, characterless, incompetent, and revengeful (revengeful because Musharraf when in power, stopped them doing corruption and nepotism). Musharraf facing these characterless judges is same as Kashmiri Muslim facing Hindu judges belonging to ‘Shiv-Sena’ on terrorism charge. No civilized or Islamic society could allow bias judges who have their own grudges against accused to judge that accused.
