MMA will not back Musharraf's election in uniform, says Fazl
2007-08-07
Maulana Fazlur Rehman, leader of the opposition in the National Assembly and MMA secretary general, said on Monday that he had rejected a government request to support President Pervez Musharraf's re-election in uniform from the current assemblies.

Maulana Fazl told reporters at Parliament House that Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain, president of the PML, had asked him on behalf of the government to support the ruling party in parliament in the re-election of President Musharraf. "I refused him the MMA's support on the uniform and told him in unequivocal terms that we would not allow Musharraf's re-election in uniform from the current assemblies," he said. He said the All Parties Democratic Movement would soon take a final decision on the presidential election. He did not answer when asked if the MMA would abstain from voting in the election.
