Protesters from all across the United Kingdom are expected to attend a demonstration in Birmingham at a rally organised by former President of Pakistan- Pervez Musharraf- as he aims to revive his political career by launching his 'All Pakistan Muslim League'.
On October 2, the protesters will gather at the New Bingley Hall, where Musharraf will address the members of his newly formed party, The Nation reported.
Taji Mustafa, the media representative of Hizb ut-Tahrir in Britain, said, "The purpose of our demonstration against Musharraf is clear: to expose a person who is no less a slave of America than Zardari who he seeks to replace."
"He is the man who sold Dr Aafia Siddiqui to the United States; the man who supported America's war against the Muslims of Afghanistan; the man who did America's bidding in Waziristan and at the Lal Masjid; the man who fuelled bitter divisions within Pakistan; the man who allowed the US security forces - the FBI, CIA, Blackwater and others - into Pakistan," he added.
He accused MP Khalid Mahmood, who supported the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, of parading Musharraf to Birmingham's Muslims.
Mustafa also opined that as Zardari's political life was going to expire soon, Musharraf now aimed to fill Zardari's shoes, and wanted to resume servitude to Washington and London.
"For the last two years, Musharraf has lived a millionaire's lifestyle in London, frequenting the luxurious restaurants and hotels, something unaffordable to most generals on a pension. Yet people are expected to think that he is somehow less corrupt than Zardari or Nawaz Sharif," he said.
Mustafa stated that Pakistan did not need "the same old recycled corrupt slaves of America and Britain," but a new leadership and new system.
"Pakistan needs Caliphate to save it from the likes of Zardari and Musharraf and offer the people, a real change and real justice under Islam," he added.
Hizb ut-Tahrir is an international pan-Islamic political organization whose goal is for all Muslim countries to unify as an Islamic state or Caliphate ruled by Islamic law and with a Caliph head of state elected by Muslims. (ANI)
