Bhutto placed under house arrest
BBC NEWS | World | South Asia | Ex-PM Bhutto under house arrest
Bhutto has been placed under house arrest to prevent her joining rallies calling for the end of the state of emergency and for Musharraf to stand down as head of the army.
What do you think is likely to happen? It's clear that Musharraf's deal with Bhutto is gone, I don't think there's going to be any power-sharing and mutual support in voting now.
