Assalam-o-Alaikum-Warahmat-ULLAH ALL,
@zjshami: My point was;
1) WE have to start legal proceedings from somewhere. I don't! care where it begins. It has to begin. AND it HAS to begin SOONER! than later.
2) I am of the view, it is "tangible" to start with Musharraf, because convicting him SOONER than later will WILL send a CLEAR signal to ALL Pakistanis', to victims of Musharraf in Baluchistan which is at the verge of asking for independence, in FATA/PATA where people are fighting against Pak Army and Pak govt. because of drone attacks and because Pakistan calls itself "front line ally" of those who are doing drone attacks on our own people, in NWFP because of un-needed military operations and also to the rest of the world.
The latest wounds inflicted on our people, fresh wounds, were by Musharraf
If you go for inditing Zia and Musharraf at this time, that would be great.
If you start with the first crime, that was ever committed in Pakistan's history, from the first dictator be it Yahya or Zia, you'd be effectively letting Musharraf die of old age. Is that what you want for the latest traitor in the history of this nation?
What signal will that send to the rest of the world? It will tell them, we allow traitors of Pakistan, mass murderers of Pakistanis', those who destroyed our economy while they were personally benefiting from foreign "salary" are free to happily live their lives in foreign countries in luxury till they die of old age.
Is that what you want to tell the world about our nation?
Again, my point is, I don't care where the legal proceedings begin. They MUST begin SOONER than later. Convicting traitors, saboteurs, criminals FAST!!! is MORE!! important.
P.S. I don't see your point in quoting someone dead who was hung by rulers of a non-Muslim state? I don't have knowledge of any similar judgment from the history of Muslims, Muslim UMMAT, Muslim Nations, Muslim jurisprudence
