LAHORE: Patron-in-Chief of Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) Dr. Tahir-ul-Qadri, calling the terrorists as ‘private army’ of the incumbent government, said the present rulers are intent on confrontation among the national institutions.

Addressing a press conference through video link from Canada, Dr. Tahir-ul-Qadri said the government is adopting extremely humiliating attitude towards Pakistan’s armed forces—that has been the track record of the present rulers.

Dr. Tahir-ul-Qadri, a prolific author with 1200 books to his name, asserted Pakistan Army was being sullied with former president Pervez Musharraf being turned into a scapegoat.

Replying to a query regarding former president General (retd) Pervez Musharraf’s treason trial, Dr. Qadri noted he was not opposed to the opening of case against the former general; instead, he wanted the case to start from October 12, 1999, not November 3, 2007.

He added all those involved in subverting the constitution should be brought to book.

The founder of Minhaj-ul-Quran started his press conference by announcing to organize mass demonstrations across the country on May 11, the day when the present government will celebrate its one year in power. –SAMAA
