A dictator is only a dictator and the apex court of justice is the Supreme Court. In Pakistan, many generals abrogated the constitution and slashed the democracy by dismantling the constitution. 1/10

Astonishingly, late General #PervezMusharraf had to face the consequences through the act of treason, imprisonment and exile alone under Article 6 for abrogation the constitution.
Such a discrimination had seared simply owing to the domicile.

#PervaizMusharafRIP had domiciled in Karachi and above all, he hailed from Mohajir nation.
When the army had toppled the government of Nawaz Sharif in 1999, General Pervez Musharraf was not in the country but was in the air as he had back to the country from a foreign trip

Only General Pervez Musharraf was prosecuted for abrogating the constitution while none of the aiding generals who actually initiated and finally toppled Sharif' government was prosecuted under Article 6 for subverting the constitution or aiding in it.

In clause 1 of the article 6 of the constitution, where the person who abrogates, subverts or suspends the constitution has been declared guilty of treason, under clause 2 of the article 6, the person who aids and abets in abrogating or suspending the constitution

has also been declared guilty of high treason.
But the case under the Article 6 was only applied against General Pervez Musharraf. However, the aides of General Pervez Musharraf, generals or the judges were spared despite their sins not lesser than General Pervez Musharraf

but the later alone faced the repercussions of the high treason act as laid in Article 6.
This act of discrimination was owing to the difference in domicile between General Pervez Musharraf and other generals and judges.

I am not justifying Pervez Musharraf's act of abrogating the constitution, but I am just exposing the dual standards.
It is the legal and moral obligation of the intellectuals,TV anchors and journalists who hold the constitution sacred and advocated the sanctification

9/10
of the constitution should now say per their conscience where has the justice system in the country gone?
Failing to say the truth, I advise them to stop fooling the people by talking about the sanctity of the constitution.

#PervaizMusharafRIP had passed away in exile today. He had fought battles for the country.
To Allah we belong and to Him we shall return.
May Pervaiz Musharraf rest in peace in Heaven and the aggrieved family may find patience over such a colossal loss. Amen!
