Pakistan
Armed Forces Should Arrest General Musharraf
No one has caused that much harm to Pakistan
as much general Musharraf has caused it. He is irresponsible,
self-centered, tunnel vision, thankless person who cannot see
beyond his nose. He has always preferred personal interest over
interest of Pakistan.
Latest example is his irresponsible statement
about charging former Deputy Secretary of State Mr. Richard
Armitage about bombing Pakistan back to stone-age after 9/11.
Mr. Armitage categorically denied that he made or conveyed any
such remarks to general Musharraf.
General Musharraf made these irresponsible
remarks only to make millions of dollars out of his book sale at
the cost of Pakistan.
Does this man deserve to be the commander in
chief of the armed forces of Pakistan or President of Pakistan?
Certainly not. He has been a problem child,
problem soldier, problem subordinate, problem commander in chief
and problem (illegitimate) President of Pakistan.
He has given enough of bad name to armed
forces of Pakistan. He is an individual and armed forces of
Pakistan are definitely not responsible for his acts. However,
since October 12, 1999, all the actions he has taken for his
personal interests have been discredited armed forces of
Pakistan.
There have been so many good commanders in
chiefs who had the opportunity to break the law and illegally
take over the country, but they showed professionalism and did
not break the law. Fresh examples are generals Aslam Beg and
Jehangir Karamat. Civilian institutions were in very vulnerable
position both in General Aslam Beg and General Jehangir
Karamat’s times, but they tried to subside their personal
interest in the larger interest of Pakistan, but general
Musharraf preferred personal interest over the interest of the
country and illegally took over the reigns of the government.
He has already laid the foundation of
division of Pakistan into 3 pieces. Aside from the American
think tank’s map, general Musharraf has practically brought
Pakistan to the brink where it can break into Balochistan,
Waziristan and the remainder of Pakistan.
General Musharraf is the citizen of Pakistan.
His status is best described by the constitution of Pakistan.
Under the article 6 of the constitution of
Pakistan, general Musharraf committed the crime of high treason.
Being a powerful man, because of the shield of his power, he is
a fugitive who is wanted under the charges of high treason.
Therefore, it is the responsibility of the
armed forces of Pakistan to arrest general Musharraf and try him
under article 6 of the constitution of Pakistan.
General Musharraf’s arrest will rehabilitate
and restore the respect of the armed forces of Pakistan in the
minds and hearts of common Pakistanis. They will uphold the rule
of law and create an example for future adventurers like general
Musharraf.
It is matter of survival for Pakistan to stop
people like general Musharraf from violation of the laws of the
country.
General
Musharraf’s presence at the national scene is not only defaming
armed forces of Pakistan, he is practically undermining rule of
law
