Why Sharif’s ouster is dangerous for Pakistan

I guess you have no clue about actual discussion

according to Nawaz sharif he needed Ikama and requirement of iqama was to be working and receiving a salary so he appointed himself as chairman of his son company but did not received any income and itw a sjust existed in contract and since he did not received any money then he did not declared it in nomination paper priot to 2013 election so that's why all this debate

I would have not mind the judgement of disqualification if it was based on corruption or money laundering charges after due process rather than just not being sadiq and not declaring those few lakhs which they claim that they did not received from company of his son. Its very weak legal argument to disqualify when you had plenty others serious charges


That Means He Committed Visa Fraud.

NS Was Given A Good One Year To Defend Himself And He Only Came Up With Fake Documents and A Qatari Letter Based On Hearsay.And Now With Case In NAB He Has Actually Been Given Another Chance To Prove His Innocence

Everybody Knows Nawaz Sharif's Style Back In 1990s He Sent Rafique Tarrar To Bribe Judges and Succeeded To Get Justice Irshad Hasan Khan

And Everybody Knows About The Attack He Orchestrated Against Supreme Court

He may still die Constitutionally.
Who knows.
Give him a fair chance
 
The Army is smart enough to do covertly what it can, with overt measures taken only as a last resort. What I have said above remains incontrovertible.
So army submitted forged documents and threatened judges :undecided:

The army was smart enough to sit back drink some namkeen chai and watch the sharifs implode lol. The old saying "what goes around comes around" hit that family hard.

This is only the beginning.

It would be an immense disservice to the entire nation if PPP and MQM kuttas are allowed to roam free. They should also face their sins. Every last jahil who has made his way to government posts and has become an oppressor he should be killed.

The upcoming leaders' first goal should be to to first and foremost bring people out of jahalat. EDUCATE them so we eventually come out of this stone age like condition. And never have to go back.

Like I have said before. There should be a limit to how many times one person or his family members can become ruler of our country. So we dnt get stuck with feudal lords and their evil children ruling us for eternity. And there should be a limit to # of political parties in Pakistan. No other flag should be allowed besides our national flag.
NOT EVERY TOM DICK AND HARRY SHOULD BE ABLE TO OPPRESS NORMAL PEOPLE.
 
so we can't punish someone for Corruption ? if other countries do, its a good Step but if Pakistan do its not Halal .. some people are mad cause their investment and asset is Gone .
Has he been ousted for corruption? You moron.
 
Getting dismissed on the basis of a technicality makes him a prime candidate for future elections. This term was anyway over in 2018 I guess ?

This is why I was so against this compaign of Imran against him, they did that to Bhutto and we are still dealing with his legacy, now Sharif family will become another legacy. This will count as Jewish conspiracy against a great Islamic leader of Pakistan...now deal with it
 
Why Sharif’s ouster is dangerous for Pakistan : Washington Post

imrs.php


In May 2013 after his electoral victory, Nawaz Sharif said something that for years, no Pakistani leader had dared to express. Sharif told me, “civilian supremacy over the military is a must.” He went a step further and said, “The prime minister is the boss, not the army chief. This is what the constitution says. We all have to live within the four walls of the constitution.”

This week, Pakistan’s Supreme Court disqualified Sharif for life, ostensibly because his three children were named in the Panama Papers and were charged with having undeclared properties abroad through offshore companies. Ultimately, he was found guilty on a technicality unrelated to the Panama Papers.

But was Sharif’s dismissal written into the script the day he asserted his civilian rights? Sharif seems to be paying the price for trying to restore some authority to the office of the prime minister. He also took on a foreign policy agenda that was inimical to the shadowy Pakistani security establishment that has often used terrorist groups as strategic assets against both India and Afghanistan. Earlier this year, amid spiraling tensions between India and Pakistan, Sharif told me he was attempting a renewed rapprochement; his India policy is certainly one reason why he was disliked by his army.


Sharif’s ouster is being celebrated by some as an example of Pakistan upholding the best democratic values of accountability. “It’s the biggest victory for the rule of law in Pakistan’s history,” said Naeem Ul-Haque, of the opposition party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). Haque is an aide to glamorous cricketer-turned politician Imran Khan — the main petitioner in the case demanding action against Sharif. “Rule of law is the spirit of democracy,” Haque insisted.

In fact, this verdict is the exact opposite. It weakens the country’s tenuous democracy and allows its all-powerful army to grab power without having to formally seize it. Pakistan’s Supreme Court did not even permit Sharif the benefit of a legal trial, accepting instead the findings of an investigative panel, on which two of the six members were from the same military establishment that wanted his exit. “This is a judicial coup,” Husain Haqqani, Pakistan’s former ambassador to the United States, said to me in an interview. “Had this been about corruption, there would have been a trial, not direct intervention by the Supreme Court, which should only be the court of final appeal in criminal matters. The military in Pakistan knows the difficulties of a military coup, so now hidden powers are using the judiciary.” The Supreme Court of Pakistan has validated previous military coups citing what it calls the “doctrine of necessity.”

Indeed, in Pakistan, the military is the ventriloquist and politicians are the puppets. No elected prime minister has completed a full term.

When Sharif won in 2013, it was the first peaceful transition of power from one elected government to another. But even Sharif’s predecessor and opponent, Asif Ali Zardari, had to live with his government’s prime minister being ousted by the Supreme Court. Sharif himself has been sacked twice before as prime minister; in 1993, he was ousted by the president, and in 1999, his army chief, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, seized power in a brazen takeover. Musharraf’s hijacking of the government was the third successful army takeover in Pakistan. Since then, many Pakistanis have argued that their nation is “post-coup.” Sharif’s ouster proves that claim is a lie.

Sharif’s has been sent home — not because of “Panama Gate” but because, believe it or not, he failed to be “sadiq” and “ameen,” or truthful and trustworthy. These vaguely worded criteria, borrowed from Arabic, were brought into law by another military dictator, Gen. Zia-ul-Haq, under the contentious clauses of Articles 62 and 63 of Pakistan’s constitution. A godsend for military authoritarianism, these arbitrary provisions are meant to benchmark morally upright leaders and disqualify them if needed. Sharif, the court says, was untruthful about not drawing a salary of 10,000 dirhams a month (about $2,700) as chairman of a Dubai-based company (Capital FZE) owned by his son, until nearly a year after assuming office. Sharif’s lawyers argued that this involved an Emirati work permit procured during the years Musharraf forced him into exile. Investigators insist Sharif did not declare this additional income; the former Prime minister argued that he never used the money.

Now contrast these relatively small charges with Musharraf, who stands accused of high treason as well as having a role in the murder of Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto. The military weighed in, and Musharraf was allowed to leave the country with the permission of the courts.

This glaring double standard is what undermines Pakistan’s democracy. “It is a populist judgment, which has opened the doors for the disqualification of politicians on flimsy grounds,” warns Asma Jahangir, one of Pakistan’s most respected lawyers. “It is highly flawed in procedure and substance.” Jahangir told me she understand the concern over corruption and conceded that the Sharif family — with huge business interests in steel and sugar — would have to address these questions, but added: “What is the hurry; why the short cuts? He has a right to due process.”

Sharif’s political opponents, such as Khan, may be rejoicing at his ouster. But Pakistani friends say he should know that this verdict sets a dangerous precedent. Tomorrow it could be Khan. Pakistanis speak of the army’s “Minus-3 Formula,” meaning that the military has already pushed three major national leaders — Altaf Hussain, Sharif and Zardari — into oblivion. It’s official: Pakistan’s military no longer needs martial law to control the nation.

Trump may be impeached from the presidency as Carter was... was that bad for American democracy?... the same writers will sing no.

He Was Given 1.5 Years To Prove Himself But The Only Thing He Came Up With Were Fake Documents and A Qatari Letter Based On Hearsay.Even Then The Judges Have Ordered NAB To File A Reference Meaning He Will Be Given Another Chance To Prove His Innocence
Didn't Qatari prince vouch Mr. Sharif's claim numerous times by sending attested letters that were neglected on authentication's ground and at the end he sent one attested by Qatari GOVT., that too wasn't accepted by honorable judges? Mod. Emmie wrote, "A fact is a fact, doesn't matter what time it appears. A fact remains a fact even if appears seconds before conviction or seconds before exoneration. An innocent shouldn't be convicted and a culprit shouldn't get away with the crime, that's the whole argument." that was agreed but then why Qatari GOVT's attested letter wasn't accepted, may I ask? Sorry if I sounded ignorant.

I doubt army had anything to do with Panama leaks otherwise I too would have believed in covertly conspiracy. If NS is found to be corrupt then he doesn't deserve to be PM with or without army support.
2nding you on this, I just wanted to point out that army was just 1 of many veritable arms of establishment.

As An Accountant Let Me Tell You That Legally Such Letters Are Considered BS.Transactions Can Only Be Proved By Legally Attested Invoices and Receipts.

Prince Jassim Was Invited To Give His Version He Refused.He Was Even Invited To Give His Testimony Via Skype He Also Refused.It Was Not That The Courts Did Not Call Him He Did Not Come Himself

And If Anyone Reads The Letter He Can Notice That The Contents Are Based On Hearsay."I Understand" and "I Can Recall" Are Some Of The Words In That Text

Also It Goes Against What NS And His Son Husain Nawaz Stated Previously That Flats Were Bought From The Proceeds Of Sale Of Saudi Steel Mill.
