Comeback man Musharraf calls Nawaz Sharif 'brainless'
Pakistan's former military ruler Pervez Musharraf, who in 1999 overthrew the government of Nawaz Sharif, believes the two-time premier lacks intellect and is "totally brainless".
Musharraf, who launched his All Pakistan Muslim League in the UK and announced his return to active politics said Sharif lost power twice as he lacked intellect.
" Nawaz Sharif lost power twice because he lacked intellect," Musharraf, who also apologised to the people for the mistakes of his regime, told hundreds of supporters in Birmingham last evening.
"I worked with him for an entire year and noticed that Nawaz Sharif is totally brainless," Musharraf was quoted as saying by the News International.
Musharraf said his party -- All Pakistan Muslim League -- would be accountable to people and have a democratic structure where power would not be inherited.
"If voted to power, we will be accountable to the people. Our party will have a democratic structure and power will not be inherited," he said.
Sharif, who was thrown out by Musharraf in a bloodless coup, is considered a bitter foe of the former president.
Outside the venue of the rally, a few hundred members of pan-Islamic body Hizbut Tahrir gathered in a peaceful protest.
Some held banners that read "Pakistan needs an accountable ruler" while others hit Musharraf's posters with footwears.
