Islamabad
\nPakistan’s Supreme Court on Tuesday assured former dictator General Pervez Musharraf that high-level security will be provided to him if he returns to the country to face the trial in a high-profile treason case.<\/p>\n
The lawyer responded that the former military ruler respected the courts but could not return because of security issues.<\/p>\n
The chief justice said the head of the Rangers force in the relevant province will be responsible for Musharraf’s security upon his return to the country, the report said.<\/p>\n
Musharraf will also be offered the services of best available doctors in the country if he comes back, Nisar asserted.<\/p>\n
The court also ordered to de-seal Musharraf’s farmhouse to accommodate him upon his return.<\/p>\n
The case pertains to the recovery of a large amount of public money wasted allegedly by former presidents Musharraf, Asif Zardari and former attorney general Malik Qayyum in the wake of the NRO in 2007.<\/p>\n
During Tuesday’s hearing, Musharraf’s lawyer presented details of his assets in Pakistan and abroad.<\/p>\n
According to Shah, Musharraf owns nothing in the country, whereas he has a flat in Dubai and a farmhouse in Chak Shahzad that has been leased in Musharraf’s wife’s name.<\/p>\n
The former president was indicted in March 2014 on treason charges for imposing emergency in the country which led to the confinement of a number of superior court judges in their houses and sacking of over 100 judges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
