MUSHARRAF OBEYED THE SUPREME COURT ORDER!
by Kabeer on Sep 11, 2007 01:43 PM   Permalink

Consider this!
Musharraf had this option! The moment he came to know that Sharif boarded PIA 786 flight at Heathrow he would have instructed the flight to take a detour to Jeddah before coming to Islamabad and would have asked Kind Abdullah to make arrangements to offload Sharif over there and could have prevented all the hungama at Islamabad airport. But he didn't do it because the Supreme Court of Pakistan ordered that Sharif should be allowed to come to Pakistan. So, Musharraf allowed Sharif to come to Pakistan and also allowed him to go to S.Arabia. Supreme court order does not say that Sharif should be allowed to stay in Pakistan against his wishes. So Musharraf obeyed the Supreme Court orders in strict legal terms. He can not be prosecuted for contempt of court. Atleast he ventured into the grey area which can only be debated rather than the black and white which can not be debated.
