That is true. So, decision is not for or against either party. Although I would like to know why did the court throw out Dr Anwar ul Huq’s petition? His govt employee and so is Mushrraf. If Mushrraf can run for political office why can’t he?

Also, I think the SC just kicked the cane down the road. This issue is far from over, and when Justice (R) Wahjudin’s rise objection to Mushrraf nomination before the EC, the EC will over rule his objection and this issue will land right back the SC’s door. Which means at the end the the day the SC court has to decide whether Mushrraf can remain army chief and still run for a political office.

Word of caution for all sides, and especially Mushrraf supporters. If the SC goes with Mushrraf for whatever reason, keep in mind that it will legalize and legitimize army intervention in politics for all times to come. You may support Mushrraf liberal policies, economic or otherwise, but next time around it might be an Islamist jihadi general. What excuse will you have to oppose him?

Very well said :k:
