Brigadier Sarfraz Ali has been appointed as commander of 111 Brigade.
111 Brigade is responsible for security of Islamabad and Rawalpindi, but had usually been mobilised in the past to stage coups.
According to reports by some private television channels, despite high-level change, the Pak Army doesn’t have intentions to take over the government, but Chief of Army Staff Gen Ashfaq Parvez Kayani has made it repeatedly clear that the Army would not compromise on the matters of national interest.
This bridge has been instrumental in many military coups in the country in the past, and change of command of the brigade is being taken seriously and dubbed as ‘unusual move’ by political commentators and analysts.
The prime minister’s move came after the Army reacted to Gilani’s interview to a Chinese newspaper, wherein he had termed Army chief and DG ISI’s response submitted to Supreme Court’s in memogate case as illegal and unconstitutional.
With the fresh developments, the strained relations between the civilian government and military established have dipped to its lowest ebb.
The Army chief also called an emergency meeting of Army’s principal staff officers (PSOs) to be held tomorrow (Thursday), which will discuss the fast unfolding events in the country .
Brig. Sarfraz is welcome as long as he acts within his constitutional limits. If acts smartly and he tries to tresspass the constitution like the head of this notorious brig. did in the past then the “ramifications” would really be serious for this country-Pakistan.
For Godsake act sensibly. Pakistan already has become a laughing stock in the eyes of the world. Think about it. Think about people. Put aside personal grudges and know what in the hell you guys are doing?????????????????????????????????????????????????????
