Nawaz Sharif a 'closet Taliban': Musharraf |
2009-09-27 |
![]() In an interview to a foreign news channel, Musharraf called Sharif 'abrasive' and 'confrontational'. "He (Sharif) has never been on good terms with any president of Pakistan," Musharraf said. Musharraf said Sharif maintained a close link with extremist groups, as the latter has never said anything against terrorism. It is worth mentioning here that Sharif has been pushing hard for Musharraf's prosecution under the Article Six of the Constitution. Sharif, time and again, has accused the former military general of abrogating Pakistan's Constitution by imposing emergency in the state in November 2007. Sharif also maintains that Musharraf had taken an 'illegal' and 'extrajudicial' step by removing the judges of higher judiciary following declaring an emergency in the country. |
