Islamabad, Jan 8 (ANI): Former Pakistan president Pervez Musharraf will be arrested from the airport when he returns to the country, a senior lawyer has said.
Senior special prosecutor M Azhar Chaudhry said that Musharraf had already been declared a proclaimed offender in the Benazir Bhutto Assassination Case and there was no need to get new warrants for his arrest.
Musharraf was declared a proclaimed offender by the Anti-Terrorism Court in Rawalpindi for his failure to cooperate with investigators in the case.
The prosecutor said that three important pieces of evidence have been retrieved after the completion of forensic report of Benazir's BlackBerry, and the evidence had also been added to the charge sheet.
The former dictator, who now leads his own All Pakistan Muslim League (APML) political party, has spent the last three years in self-imposed exile. He earlier announced that he would return Pakistan in January.
Musharraf is also facing criminal cases in the Balochistan High Court for allegedly ordering the killing of Baloch tribal chieftain Nawab Akbar Khan Bugti in 2006. (ANI)
