KARACHI: Internationally recognized social worker who is being treated at a local hospital, Abdul Sattar Edhi favours former dictator Pervez Musharraf over his operation against Lal Masjid clerics.
Responding to a question over trial of Pervez Musharraf under Article 6 of the Constitution, Edhi was of the view that he had done some good things and Lal Masjid operation was one of them.
“At the time of Lal Masjid operation, I and my wife Bilqees Edhi were there and we had tried to convince Lal Masjid administration to avoid violence. But they just kept on saying Jihad, Jihad.”
“And the result was obvious for this adamant approach,” Edhi further said in an interview to Daily Dunya newspaper.
