Criminals are running the country, says Mumtaz Bhutto

Karachi, July 5 : Without naming PPP Co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari, Mumtaz Ali Bhutto, the paternal uncle of former Pakistan premier Benazir Bhutto, has said that people who had made a profession out of crime were today ruling the country and that "decision regarding the country were in their hands".

People who had made a profession out of crime had been thrust upon the people, and the decisions of the country and its fate were in their hands. Now, there was no way out but for the masses to fight for their own rights and save the country, Bhutto said.

"The present rulers have proved within three months that they lack the direction to run the government. Crime, corruption, inflation have tripled during the reign of the present government. On the other hand, the lavish expenses of parliament and its ministers come after defense," the Daily Times quoted Bhutto as saying.

Bhutto said this while talking to people at his residence Friday. He said that there were many people, who have been behind bars for more than 20 years in criminal cases, and thus had more of a right than the present rulers.

Notably, Zardari has been behind bars for almost a decade, as he faced several huge corruption charges running into several crores. But, a couple of months after the PPP assumed power at federal level, all pending cases against him were withdrawn in different cases.

Criminals are running the country, says Mumtaz Bhutto

As we know that the political field is like a dungeon. We know your famiily was one of the victim by the time when it had happened. Bhutto family were after to finish their foe, by the time it was your foe too, but situation did not favour to them and turned down by the other way around and to survive from the situation some one seems rather compilled to play that dirty game perhaps. Now Allah is looking after again to Bhutto clan. Who can predict that eventually you might be the one in the role of the Chair ?

I don't know what's going on

I wish I could understand all that is happening. I just don’t. Do the Bhuttos' even know?

flawed democracy in Pakistan

we want democracy. but who elected zardari and his son to be chairmen of ppp and mr. n. sharif to be the top boss of pmln? we need new constitutional amendment for the parties to have elections for their leaders first. that is only way to root out these criminal convicts to rule the masses.
