Pakistan’s former military ruler General Pervez Musharraf may testify in the coming weeks in two important cases relating to former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto’s murder and high treason, according to a media report on Friday.
An anti-terrorism court (ATC) of Rawalpindi may summon Musharraf to defend
himself and counter the evidence produced by prosecutors in the Bhutto murder case, Dawn reported.
Two-time premier Bhutto was killed in a terrorist attack in 2007 when Musharraf was president of the country and he was implicated in the case in 2010 for his alleged role in
the murder.
However, it remains to be seen whether the ‘ailing’ 72-year-old former president will appear personally before the court to get his statements recorded or testify through a video link.
