A three-member special court will resume the hearing of high treason case against former President Pervez Musharraf today at the premises of Federal Shariat Court.
It should be mentioned here that the special court headed by Justice Faisal Arab, indicted the 70-year-old former army chief on March 31 on five counts of charges for subverting and abrogating the Constitution, promulgating emergency in the country in November 2007 and detaining judges of the higher judiciary.
After framing charges against him in the previous hearing, the court exempted the former ruler from appearing personally. Hence, following the removal of security scare, the hearing will be moved to Shariat Court’s premises from National Library.
