PakistanEmergency
General Pervez Musharraf imposed emergency in Pakistan on Nov 3, 2007. This infact is not emergency but Martial Law. This makes Pervez musharraf the only man in the country's democratic history, who has imposed the martial law twice in a country.
Currently, all the civilians are protesting against the illegal imposition of the army in the country.

Real reason of the emergency
Mr. Musharraf was terrified that the supreme court of Pakistan will give decision against him. Supreme Court was hearing the case of the legality of his holding the President's Office side by side being a Chief of Army Staff. The other issue was whether he can be elected as the president of Pakistan for the third time (violating the clause which was made part of the constitution by the General himself) was going to be decided on Nov 5, 2007.

Hi Usman,
I am a producer at CNN International and I need to certify that you took the photo submitted to IREPORT from Pakistan. Also, can you tell me if you are at least 18 years of age? If you could tell me a little more about the scene and why you submitted the photo to IREPORT I would really appreciate it.
Thank you so much,
Nadia Lancy
