Judicial Slingshot

Judicial slingshot was re-invented from Mr. President on his visit to Europe. He has referred again and again to the judicial activism , nepotism and corruption behind his November 3 action. He has smashed the hanging judge with his slingshot. His remarks can be found here [ENGLISH JOURNALISTS CONFERENCE] and here [RUSI].

Now, after getting smashed and trapped in nest , Iftikhar Chaudary somehow managed to come out with his version. Here is what he started with...

I am the Chief Justice of Pakistan presently detained in my residence since
November 3,2007 pursuant to some verbal, and unspecified, order passed
by General Musharraf.I have found it necessary to write to you, and
others, because during his recent visits toBrussels, Paris, Davos
and London General Musharraf has slandered me, and my
colleagues, with impunity in press conferences and other addresses and meetings.
In addition he has widely distributed, among those whom he has met, a slanderous
document (hereinafter the Document) entitled: “PROFILE OF THE FORMER CHIEF JUSTICE OF PAKISTAN”.

Meanwhile, Rashid Qureshi, Musharraf's spokesman, dismissed Chaudhry's claim he was under house detention, saying he was in fact illegally occupying an official residence that he had been asked to vacate.
Qureshi also rejected Chaudhry's description of the president as an "extremist general." "The world recognises him as a moderate and a balanced personality. He has been working for the last eight years to make Pakistan's conservative society into a moderate one," he said.
