On June 19, one Pakistani PM was removed in a contempt of court case. June 22 another PM took oath presuming that courts would let the democratic system run. But that was wishful thinking. While he was busy forming his cabinet, he received the orders from the Supreme Court, June 27, to write a letter to Swiss authorities or face the same consequences as the previously dismissed PM.
I was just wondering what should be his priorities: should he not looking into the consequences of Abu Jandal’ confessions regarding 26/11 Mumbai attacks; should he not take up the recent Taliban attacks from Kunar province with Afghan authorities; post the Kayani-Allen’ positive meeting, should he not focus on the restoration of Nato supplies, should he not give his attention to the unabated killing and ethnic cleansing of Hazara people in Quetta and the lawlessness, target killings and extortion in Sindh’ urban centres? What about shortage of fuel, gas and power hitting the industry and public life? What about preparations to face another heavy monsoon rainy season?
Or should he spend the next ten days working with the Attorney General, lawyers and counsels to prepare his case.
