The Pakistani Supreme Court has handed down a ruling declaring that Musharraf has to be re-elected between September and October of this year by the Pakistani Parliament.
According to a Supreme Court decision, General Musharraf must be re-elected between September and October this year. He has two options for this, one is to seek re-election from the present assembly and the other is to seek re-election from a new assembly.
Losing Musharraf without making a successful shift over to democracy may be very detrimental to the War on Terror. I would highly recommend reading this comprehensive Foreign Affairs story about Pakistan.
