Former Pakistan Army Chief General Pervez Musharraf given death sentence in high treason case

SO FAR AND WHAT'S NEXT
  • Musharraf has been on trial for subverting the Constitution by promulgating state of emergency in the country on November 3, 2007.
  • Musharraf is currently living in Dubai. His team can appeal the verdict in the Supreme Court.
  • Musharraf is suffering from amyloidosis, a rare disease caused by a build-up of an abnormal protein called amyloid in organs and tissues throughout the body.
Dubai: Former Pakistan Army Chief and ex-president General (retired) Pervez Musharraf has been given the death penalty in a treason case by a special court in Pakistan.

This is the first time in the history of Pakistan that a former army chief has been handed the death sentence. The special court order is subject to appeal.

A three-member bench of the special court, headed by Peshawar High Court Chief Justice Waqar Ahmad Seth, on Tuesday handed former military ruler Pervez Musharraf the death sentence.

He's good.

Got billions in the bank and I'm betting that a significant percentage of the generals in Pakistan right now were probably loyal to him when he was in power.

It has and he Def won’t be returning, just figured I’d post since I remembered that coup.

It's well worth the share. I feel like their entire political class it's constantly under trail for xyz from whatever decade. Nothing ever really comes from it. I think Musharraf's kids were tied up in trials recently too.

Last I knew Musharraf was in England so it was a surprise to see he was in Dubai. No way the UK or EU would deport him if he was facing death. He's looked really sick the last decade or more I'm surprised he's alive.
