PTI, Islamabad :
Pakistan’s former military dictator Pervez Musharraf, who is facing a high-profile treason case for suspending the Constitution, is unlikely to return to the country due to his family pressure and medical board”s recommendations, a media report said Sunday.
The development came a day after his lawyer Salman Safdar told reporters that the 75-year-old former president, despite his deteriorating medical condition, is determined to appear before the court that had summoned him for the hearing scheduled for May 2.
However, Dawn news reported that General (retd) Musharraf might not return to Pakistan because of his medical board’s recommendation and family pressure.
“Gen Musharraf has been facing pressure from his family that he should not travel at the cost of his health. However, as everyone knows that Gen Musharraf is a man of his words so still there are 50 per cent chances of his return,” a member of the All Pakistan Muslim League Ali Nawab Chitrali said.
