former president of Pakistan sentenced to death

[nomand]

ladies and gentleman this is the reason why dictators fight till the end or the next president will kill them.
the smart thing to do is to forgive them so to encourage a system where the president can leave office and not be afraid of being arrested and killed.

but if the president/ dictator knows that his successor will kill him then he will try everything in his power to hold on. which is why obama pardoned bush. and the next president of USA will pardon Trump.

(CNN)Former Pakistan President and military ruler Pervez Musharraf has been sentenced to death in absentia for high treason following a six-year legal case.

A three-member special court in Islamabad on Tuesday convicted Musharraf of violating the constitution by unlawfully declaring emergency rule while he was in power, in a case that had been pending since 2013.
The 76-year-old former leader, who has lived in self-imposed exile in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates for more than three years, has the option to appeal the verdict.
Musharraf seized power in a military coup in 1999 and ruled Pakistan as President until 2008.
He was indicted in 2014 on a total of five charges, including three counts of subverting, suspending and changing the country's constitution, firing Pakistan's chief justice, and imposing emergency rule.
It's the first time in Pakistan's history that an army chief has been tried and found guilty of treason. Under Pakistan's constitution, high treason is a crime that carries the death penalty or life imprisonment.
The special court ruled on the death sentence by a two to one majority, with one of the three judges not backing the death sentence but agreeing on a conviction.
Musharraf has been living in Dubai since 2016 after Pakistan's Supreme Court lifted a travel ban allowing him to leave the country to seek medical treatment. From his hospital bed in Dubai earlier this month, the former leader said in a video statement that he was innocent and the treason case was "baseless."

If he can't come back to rule he'll just end up as a nuke dealer while he still controls the military in Pakistan.

I agree with your point.


There should be a universal constitutional law which states former bad presidents, after prosecution and a fair trial, max punishment should be exiled to a small island in their country of birth. Like they did Napoleon. It does not matter what kind of a monster he is. This measure is for the good of the country.

Dictators deserve it

 

[Calaf]

Ouch. But oh well, he is in UAE so thus no worries about the Penelty for now.

 

[SOMALI GENERAL]

UAE has no extradition treaty with Pakistan, luckily for him.

 

[Jiron]

I think they are well aware he will not be extradited and the death sentence will not be imposed but this will send a clear message to the people that corruption in that caliber will not be tolerated, not a method I would support but I respect the message.
