Human Rights Watch specifically mentioned Pakistan, where President Pervez Musharraf, one of President Bush’s crucial regional allies, dismissed members of the independent judiciary and put them under house arrest and installed his own allies on the Supreme Court to make sure that he remained president. While the Bush administration has called on Mr. Musharraf to hold elections, it has been noticeably less vocal in calling for Mr. Musharraf to reinstate the independent judiciary.
