ISLAMABAD – All Pakistan Muslim League chief Gen (retd) Pervez Musharrafhas finally decided to return to the country before the upcoming generalelection scheduled on July 25.
The decision was taken at the party’s core committee meeting held in Dubaiwhere after threadbare discussion on all the aspects of Gen(retd)Musharraf’s return including the pending cases against him in the courtsand its impact, it was finally decided that party chief would land back inthe country before the general election.
Sources aware of the deliberations said that most likely Gen (retd)Musharraf would return in the last week of the current month (June) or inthe first week of July to lead the party’s election campaign.
The legal team of the party gave a detailed briefing on the participationof the core committee and it was noted that all the cases against him(Musharraf) had been framed on flimsy grounds and politically-motivated andif these cases were properly pursued, the results would definitely come infavour of the party chairman.
