#1 Very strange that Qazi would be actively involved in the plot, since he hasn't been accused of anything, i'd guess he was off in the kitchen while the plaining took place in his lounge room.

We have to remember that Azam Tariq led an organisation responsible for the slaughter of thousands of Shi'ites, and that he had been released from prison in return for throwing his support behind Musharraf's government (his was the decided vote that allowed Jamali to become Pak PM).

Given that, I can't really blame a bunch of Shi'ite politicians (which is what all the accused are) getting together to wack Tariq. If they weren't members of the MMA I would applaud it.

#2 There's a distinct whiff of antique flounder about this. Qazi's house, Liaqat as a witness...

Only question in my mind is whether it was a setup or a frameup...

#3 deeply laid plots and wheels within wheels...
