No one wants to be tried for treason, so why should former President (also dictator) Pervez Musharraf be any different?

Mush through a video link yesterday said he was all set to return but the Supreme Court order (you can read that here) forced him to change his mind.

Pervez Musharraf addresses supporters via video link .

“[Court order] barring the authorities from arresting me till my appearance before the august court has forced me to rethink my plans about return” — Pervez Musharraf

He also said: “There will be no benefit of my return to the country if I am arrested just after my appearance before the court."

And added: “The entire world knows that I am not a coward, but now I will wait for an appropriate time to return."
