TIL Desk/World/Islamabad/ A special court hearing the treason case against Pervez Musharraf on Tuesday ordered the preparation of a questionnaire for the former military ruler and sought assistance to determine whether or not he can record his statement via video link.
The previous Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) government had filed the treason case against the ex-army chief general (retd) Musharraf in 2013 over the imposition of extra-constitutional emergency in November 2007.
The trial has not seen much progress since Musharraf, 75, left went to Dubai in March 2016 after his name was removed from the Exit Control List. He has not returned since, and is said to be suffering from Amyloidosis, a rare condition for which he has been receiving medical care.
On Saturday night, he was shifted to a hospital in Dubai after suffering a reaction from the condition. The three-judge bench headed by Justice Tahira Safdar accepted an affidavit submitted by Musharraf’s lawyer Tuesday and ordered the preparation of a questionnaire for the former president to respond.
