Even ‘Lady Luck’ smiled on Musharraf, when a bomb placed on the road near his farm-house was found in time on December 24, the day he was required to be physically present in a special court appointed to try him for allegations of treason. The terrorists failed to hardwire the explosives to the detonator. This was either a deliberate friendly warning on part of terrorists, or amazingly they forgot to wire the bomb.
I hope and pray that the next time, when these terrorists plan on killing innocent citizens of Pakistan, they also forget to detonate the bomb! It is high time we looked closely at what is happening in Pakistan and who is responsible for these acts.
ALI TARIQ,
Lahore, December 24.
