ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Awami Ittehad (PAI) secretary general Iqbal Dar on Thursday said that former president retired Gen Pervez Musharraf would return to Pakistan next month.
Addressing a press conference, Mr Dar said the date of arrival and the city where Mr Musharraf would land would be announced after consultation with all members of the PAI.
The PAI is a coalition of 23 political and religious parties led by the former president.
Mr Dar said there was a need to support the judiciary and armed forces, adding political parties should sign an agreement to decide how the country would be run in the future.
“If the ruling parties would go for confrontation with the judiciary and armed forces, they will not be able to run the country’s affairs smoothly,” he said. Politicians were giving a wrong message and impression about the country by levelling allegations of corruption against each other, he added.

He needs to stand trial for allowing drone strikes against our people and selling our country out. We don't want any dictators any more. We stand strong with democracy and strengthening our civil institutions however weak they currently are. Pakistan shall rise above these tyrants!

We would love to see you back in Pakistan. However, this time please bring your medicine and take them in time and properly so that you do not have to stay in Agha khan or AFIC. We want you to get yourself cleared from the courts and then become PM or President or once again the Army chief - whatever you like. Moreover, you should context in the elections but from a constituency in Karachi or Lahore or any other big city. I do not understand why would you contest from Chitral?

Somehow, I don't think anyone should bet on it.
Musharraf still have pending cases against him. And, he has made similar statements before when in exile earlier, but never followed through on them...
