MUSHARRAF—AN IRRELEVANT MAN IN PAKISTANI POLITICS

TV anchor persons are always hunting people for their programme and former President of Pakistan, General ® Pervez Musharraf, was one of them who are readily available to remain on the political scene though he had no views and vision on political and constitutional issues. If he was competent, he would not have been removed from the post of COAS and later on as President of Pakistan. He was removed merely because he had become irrelevant in politics and running the affairs of the country. For this specific reason, he was given a proper send off with dignity and honour so that he should not return back to Pakistan. Since he is a naïve man and unable to understand that a warm send off with due protocol meant that he should dare to come back and face the cases against him. When he became sure that he will be arrested on his return home, he cancelled his scheduled return to Pakistan. He may not return in foreseeable future for political reasons. During his TV interviews off and on, Musharraf saying novel things which did not fit-in Pakistani politics. He has no supporters, no followers and most of his trusted people are joining other parties for better political prospects. In case of Balochistan, he is a wanted man in the Nawab Bugti Murder Case and Government had approached the Interpol for his arrest and repatriation back to Pakistan to murder trial. In Shaheed Benazir Bhutto case, he is also wanted and a court of law had already attached his personal property for not appearing before the court.
