It’s no good stirring Musharraf issue: Shujaat

LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League Quaid (PML-Q) chief Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain Tuesday said opening Musharraf’s Pandora’s Box will not provide relief to the common man.

“What is the use of opening Musharraf’s Pandora’s box? Stirring this issue will not solve the problem of inflation or unemployment,” he said.

He said even if Musharraf’s case went on for even five years more, people won’t care. “Will these actions cause the prices of tomatoes to go down?” Shujaat said those responsible for inflation and unemployment should be identified and brought to book, reports Geo News.

“Those politicians who gave people false hopes should also be exposed,” he said.

He urged all politicians to play their part in taking Pakistan out of the current mess it was in.

The Lahore High Court (LHC) Tuesday removed its objections to a plea filed by former president Pervez Musharraf seeking the court’s intervention in stopping the Special Court from announcing its reserved verdict in the high-treason case against the former army chief.

LHC’s Justice Mazhar Ali Akbar Naqvi accepted the petition and sought replies from the federal government and the Ministry of Interior by November 28.

The judge also directed the federal government and related officials to appear before the court on the same date.
