| Britain to withdraw Musharraf's security |
| 2010-04-29 |
| London: The British government has decided to withdraw the security and other facilities of former Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf after a UN report on former prime minister Benazir Bhutto's murder revealed her security was insufficient during his reign. The British government has decided to withdraw all the facilities, including security, provided to Musharraf, the Online news agency reported on Monday. Musharraf was given a special vehicle for his security and was guarded by Scotland Yard personnel. The government has also refused to extend the visas of his security guards, retired Pakistani SSG commandos, who accompanied him to Britain. |

| #4 The only way to tell that they truly want him either assassinated or gone will be if he hires private British security personnel, and the government revokes their ability to carry weapons. At that point, he had better get out of Britain before the government starts arming jihadis to kill him. |

| #3 Bunch of bull if you ask me. IF they think he's guilty, try him. If they don't think he's guilty, don't screw around with him. Trying to split the difference like this is IMHO chicken####. And I say this as someone who doesn't _like_ him or his country. |

| #2 Ah, but will Britain send President General Dr. Musharraf, ret'd back to Pakistan to stand trial? That's really all he cares about. I'm sure his SSG commandos can handle a few jihadi murder attempts. |
