Musharraf likely to remain in power

Opponents of Pakistan’s President Pervez Musharraf seemed unlikely tonight to have won enough parliamentary seats to remove him from power.

With the count in Monday’s elections nearly complete, the parties of two ex-prime ministers, the murdered Benazir Bhutto and Nawaz Sharif, have done enough to form a new government, but appeared to be falling short of the two-thirds needed to impeach the president.
