KARACHI, July 15: The president of the Muttahida Majlis-i-Amal (MMA) Sindh chapter and MNA, Maulana Asadullah Bhutto, expressing his grief over the suicide attacks in Swat and Dera Ismail Khan, termed it an outcome of the wrong policies of President Pervez Musharraf.

In a statement issued here on Sunday, Maulana Bhutto alleged that an individual had tapped a wedge between people and the army and had put the ideological boundaries at stake only to prolong his rule.

Wana, Waziristan, Balochistan and the massacre of the innocent students of Jamia Hafsa were its glaring examples and now the entire country was in the grip of terrorism, he added.
