KARACHI: The Sindh High Court (SHC) on Monday reserved its judgment in a petition seeking to initiate a high treason trial against former president Pervez Musharraf for two days. The court will reveal its verdict on Thursday.
A division bench of the court, headed by SHC Chief Justice Sarmad Jalal Usmani, was hearing the petition by Maulvi Iqbal Haider.
Haider in his petition had contended that a case should be filed against the former president under Article 6 of the Constitution.
The petition accused Musharraf of violating the constitution, illegal usage of national resources, damaging the federation and soiling the state’s reputation.
In the previous hearing, the petitioner had requested the court for Musharraf's repatriation. On that, the court had directed the Interior Secretary to ensure that Musharraf was receiving the court's orders. — DawnNews
