Syed Ali Shah Geelani rejoices at Musharraf’s exit

“He has caused immense harm to Islam. He has even instigated the Pakistani army against his own people,” the chairman of the hardline faction of the Hurriyat said.

Geelani was addressing a gathering when the news of Musharraf’s resignation came in.

“I am breaking a good news. Musharraf has resigned,” he told the gathering at the Tourist Reception Centre here.

The separatist leader said “the people of Pakistan has rejected him. He has been rejected even by women and children of his country.”
