Colombians around grijalva tax reforms they say will only benefit the rich. Pakistans former president Pervez Musharraf has been sentenced to death in connection with the treason trial sharf was in office from 1909 to 2008 after seizing power in a military coup the case relates to the emergency state of emergency he imposed off to suspending the constitution in 2007 the sheriff now lives in dubai and was tried in the capital in islamabad in absentia more with the haze in islamabad so the fact that he isnt there in the country and has been in exile in dubai for many years means that this is almost a symbolic sentencing in the end. Absolutely and not to forget that this particular case had been going on all the policy. And was initiated in great detail again by no large city at the time many and a large primarily because the then Prime Minister there then. Again for taking the 99 crew however it was a good action on net then. 2007 and ritchie said then that the constitution that you mention. Sacked the country stalled. The bench warrant and the judges of a story got a provisional Constitutional Order and that of course went against him. And more wage however more people in pakistan would not be happy given the fact that convicted. Given bail and allowed to go out of the country on medical grounds they would be some questions d to the harsh judgment against massara because his defense argue that musharraf was not alone the country had a Prime Minister at the time. Caveman. And i did people who were also. Much of what it did then was that they should also be brought into the amp is a controversial decision which will also put a spotlight on pakistans controversial. What is it about formal leadership in pakistan the arab a man thinking of as musharraf. Ossified as a diary now as sharif himself controversy follows them wherever they go. Absolutely and not to forget the fact that the Political Leadership has been accused d of corruption and Money Laundering. Charges against dan and also though people may say that the former military ruler had no right to overthrow it civilly and elected government d that they will of course set a precedent but as you mentioned great to recreate it will be most symbolic musharraf is in baghdad and they go ahead he. May not lead long because of the worsening condition lead by and also the fact that the countrys Political Leadership also that is the opposition has also lost a lot of its leadership because of the serious corruption charges so of course there will always be a debate between the Civil Military relations as far as tensions between them are concerned but this particular judgment will not go down as far as Public Opinion is concerned the politicians will say. That the president. As i mentioned a great definitely bring a good chance a deficiency in denmark like thank you tamala haida the latest there from islam about we also spoke to the topic present a political analyst. Who says it is an important symbolic ruling for pakistan. It sends a signal to all the quarters in pakistan or everywhere else in the war that pakistan is certainly changing the judicial system had changed just a few days ago you know general body blows the current chief of army staff this case was handled it pretty aggressively by the Supreme Court and now and actually the same judge of the Supreme Court has said wait it gets a judge a decision is coming against another guess about a porous former chief of army stuff and that was a signal to many people in the country that there may be the decision is going to be against him and today here we are as you know pakistan traditionally is all independent its i mean nobody is immune from has any exception at all no immunity misson of our city of mrs adare all the people are either going through you know accountability cases or through you know there are several cases in the case of general musharraf of but these are technical things that i do want to mention yes you have a letter to mention that he has been sentenced to death by a court but here is the problem the problem is that as opposed to other military rulers he even of a neighbor to get his action of 2007 and then defied by the legitimized by the Supreme Court of pakistan franklins all the military dictators and when they were able to suspend the constitution or abrogate they were never to get dental action legitimized by the courts ratified by the courts.
