Islamabad:
The Islamabad High Court Thursday cancelled the bail application
of former President Pervez Musharraf and ordered his arrest in
the judges detention case, reports said.
Musharraf's security,
however, whisked him away to prevent the arrest after the
cancellation of his bail application.
General Musharraf and his lawyers have been in and out of court
numerous times to get his bail extended over the 2007 killing of
former PM, the death of a rebel leader from Baluchistan in 2006
and for arresting judges in 2007.
Pakistan's former military ruler returned home last month from
four years of self-imposed exile. His return to Pakistan has been
overshadowed by Taliban death threats, the slew of legal cases and
a miserable show of support.
On Tuesday, he was disqualified from contesting next month's
elections over the host of cases dating back to his 1999-2008
rule, effectively ending his ambitions for a comeback at the
ballot box on May 11.
