Bhutto gets arrested and all hell breaks loose!

At last the opposition in Pakistan have a face to go with their movement. As Bhutto was preparing to leave for a rally in Rawalpindi, the barricade around her house became even more tougher. But the PPP party workers managed to get through the barricade and started shouting slogans and no prizes there as to what they were protesting about. The basic freedom is gone in Pakistan and the martial law is in place. It is no wonder that the very common man on the streets of Pakistan wants to protest against Musharraf and his goons.
The detention order placing Bhutto under house arrest was then served on her. The last time I saw the live broadcast of Bhutto on the BBC,she was giving a speech and listing out every one's objections. Then the police surrounded her and I have no idea as to what has happened to her. All i hear from the television channels is that one moment she was standing there giving a speech and then the microphone was snatched away from her and then she disappeared. The official version is that she is under house arrest, but it is any body's guess as to where she has been taken by the Pakistani security forces. Either way, the opposition against Musharraf has now got the face of Benazir Bhutto and let us hope that Musharraf listens to reason and this emergency ends real soon!
