Pakistan Musharraf opposes Swat peace deal


ISLAMABAD: Former President General (r) Pervez Musharraf Monday criticized government over its peace deal with local Taliban insurgents engaged in Swat, terming it "ridiculous".


“Its really ridiculous to sign a deal with those who killed hundreds of army personnel in Swat,” an apparently-charged Musharraf told media persons in a press conference here Monday, his first official-media appearance since his resignation last year.


He said he had been facing severe hardships during his tenure saying Pakistan Army and Air force had suffered 1500 causalities while combating in terror war.
