Police arrest opposition leaders as Musharraf backs bid
Police in Islamabad detained about 35 opposition leaders to thwart President Musharraf's re election bid. Javed Hashmi received a 30 day jail term to curb protests while other deputies of Nawaz Sharif and religious party members were among those detained. The move parallels earlier efforts to block Sharif's return from exile and maintains the military led government.
