KARACHI: Retired Gen Pervez Musharraf, the former president, has asked the Sindh High Court for protective bail in various cases pending against him.
Dr Ayla Raza, daughter of Gen Musharraf, filed a constitutional petition in the Sindh High Court on behalf of her father for protective bail so that he could appear in the trial court to defend himself.
Gen Musharraf, according to the petition, plans to return to the country but apprehends arrest for his alleged involvement in different cases, including Benazir Bhutto’s assassination, Akbar Bugti’ murder and the Lal Masjid operation case in which scores were killed.
