“Internal is the main threat in Pak”: Gen. Pervez Musharraf

Pervez Musharraf said the main threat to the country’s national security is internal. The military leader said “The real threat to the stability of Pakistan is internal and a handful of extremists out to disrupt law and order”.

According to him the only solution to this problem is to reject forces that fanned hatred led to sectarian strife and involved extremist forces, as he was addressing troops at Skardu.

Musharraf remarks came as some 4000 troops were deployed in Swat to counter the activities of pro-Taliban cleric Maulana Fazlullah Nifaz-e-Shari at Mohammedi.
