IANS, Islamabad :
The special court constituted to try former Pakistan president Pervez Musharraf on Tuesday resumed his trial for high treason after his formal indictment last month.
Justice Faisal Arab, who heads the three-judge court, is hearing the case pertaining to high treason charges against the former army strongman, Dawn online reported.
Musharraf was indicted in the previous hearing
 March 31 where he pleaded not guilty to all charges.
The court earlier granted Musharraf exemption from appearing in the hearings for health reasons, saying that he could be ordered to appear whenever required.
Musharraf has been charged with high treason for suspending the constitution when he declared Emergency rule in 2007.
