Emergency no solution: Benazir



Benazir Bhutto

Karachi: The former Premier, Benazir Bhutto, on Sunday termed the “undemocratic” measure imposed on Pakistan not “emergency but martial law.” She attacked Pervez Musharraf, saying he was worried about the outcome of the Supreme Court judgment on the challenge to his re-election as President in uniform.

“General Musharraf has given supporters and sympathisers in the regime of the militants a new lease of life. He has extended their tenure,” she told reporters at her Bilawal house.

The emergency was not imposed with the stability of the country in mind, Ms. Bhutto said. “Emergency rule is no solution; we need to move forward. I am confident the nation will resist this undemocratic step.”

“The militants need the dictatorship,” she said, adding, “They feed off each other.” — PTI
