Sharif not willing to try Musharraf under Article 6, Iftikhar Chaudhry may not be a happy man

By Iram Salim

Islamabad, May 16 (www.pakdestiny.com) Nawaz Sharif is considering not to try Gen (R) Pervez Musharraf under Article 6 (reason charges).
Sources told Pak Destiny that quarters concerned had conveyed to Mr Sharif after the victory of his party that he should forget Musharraf and only concentrate formation of his government.
Ijazul Haq has already predicted that Musharraf would be given a ‘safe passage’ to leave the country.
Poor Sharif who had long been pressing to try Musharraf under Article 6 now feeling himself chained in this matter.
“It will be a pity that even after becoming prime minister Sharif remains helpless to touch Musharraf,” a PML-N leader comments.
Chief Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry may not like the decision of Sharif. The Iftikhar-led judiciary had earlier asked the government to charge Musharraf with treason charges but it refused. Now it is expecting Sharif government to come hard on him.
