national assembly in sorry state always legislate either for vested interests of selected(senate) or elected individuals of elite or on dictation of some one either interior or exterior forces
These assembly members only concern is that military courts don't take them to task. No matter what happens to Pakistan but they would delay it to overcome this concern. The only solution to Pakistan's problem is the Strongest Martial Law.
This was a golden opportunity to address the shortcomings of a corrupt police and judiciary. Unfortunately, this would be too inconvenient for most of the political class who are firm believers in the conviction-by-torture and rent-a-judge culture. All we have is military courts that will deliver justice to civilians. This way the political parties can cry foul-play when their own terror-wing members involved in theft, rigging and extortion are caught. The civilian courts will continue to deal out injustice to poor and poorly-connected people, with executions of mostly non-terrorism related innocent suspects who have been tortured to confess to something they didn't commit. Recently, international and local media has covered stories of innocent minors tortured to confess any heinous crime the authorities wanted and then sentenced to death by anti-terrorism courts.
