PAKISTAN COURT ORDERS ARREST OF FORMER PRESIDENT MUSHARRAF

A Pakistani court ordered the arrest of former president Pervez Musharraf on Thursday in connection with charges relating to his showdown with the judiciary in 2007 when he was still in power, television channels and one of his aides said.

The former army chief returned to Pakistan last month after nearly four years of self-imposed exile to contest a May 11 general election, despite the possibility of arrest on various charges and death threats from the Pakistani Taliban.

Election officials had barred Musharraf from running for the National Assembly earlier this week, effectively derailing his attempts to regain a place in politics by standing at the polls.

Although Musharraf's legal battles have provided an electrifying sideshow in the election race, he commands scant popular support and the outcome of the drama is unlikely to have much impact on the final results.

Former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, the man Musharraf ousted in a coup in 1999, is seen as the frontrunner to win the premiership.

SELENA GOMES BINDI SYMBOL PROMPTS OUTRAGE FROM HINDU COMMUNITY

Selena Gomez may not be dating Justin Bieber. But she has something in common with her fellow young singer today: both are facing backlash from certain sections of society.

While many are upset over comments Bieber made in regard to Anne Frank, Gomez is under fire for donning a Bindi on her forehead during her performance of "Come and Get It" at Sunday's MTV Movie Awards.

Officials at the Universal Society of Hinduism have referred to Selena's use of the religious symbol as "insensitive," with statesman Rajan Zed telling WENN:

"The bindi on the forehead is an ancient tradition in Hinduism and has religious significance... It is not meant to be thrown around loosely for seductive effects or as a fashion accessory aiming at mercantile greed.

Hatima ya wagombea sita walioenguliwa kwenye uchaguzi wa Shirikisho la Soka Tanzania, sasa itajulikana baada ya ujumbe wa Fifa kurejea Uswisi.

Wagombea ambao hatima yao ipo mikononi mwa Fifa ni Jamali Malinzi, Michael Wambura, Hamad Yahaya, Eliud Mvela, Farid Nahd na  Mbasha Matutu.
Hayo yalibainishwa na Henry Tandau wakati akiwaambia wagombea kuwa  majibu hayatatolewa hapa leo (jana), lakini hadi pale ujumbe wa Fifa chini ya Primo Cavaro watakaporejea Zurich na kupitia maelezo yote ndipo watakapotuma majibu ya suala hilo.
Awali ujumbe huo wa Fifa ulifanya kikao na sekretarieti ya TFF kuanzia asubuhi mpaka saa tano ambapo iliingia kamati ya uchaguzi chini ya Deogratius Lyato.
Wagombea sita waliokuwa kwenye viunga vya hoteli ya Serena kulipofanyika kikao hicho tangu saa tano asubuhi hadi saa tisa.
Ndipo saa kumi jioni, Tandau alipotoka na kuwatangazia wagombea kuwa wataingia wenyewe bila ya mawakili wao.
