Musharraf's Gujrat visit: Police round up dozens of MMA workers |
2005-01-01 |
Police raided Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) offices and the houses of its leaders on late Friday and rounded up dozens of workers in Gujrat. The MMA had planned to take out a protest rally on the arrival of Mr Musharraf who is scheduled to address a public meeting in Gujrat today (Saturday). Daily Times said that though police failed to target the MMA's top leaders in Gujrat they did however manage to nail a majority of workers. The MMA is marking a "black day" today against Mr Musharraf`s dual office role. |
