Pak Supreme Court agrees to hear late military ruler Musharraf’s plea on his death sentence

Islamabad, Nov 10 (PTI) Pakistan's Supreme Court on Friday decided to hear an appeal by now-deceased former military dictator Pervez Musharraf against the special court majority judgment that handed him a death sentence on treason charges in 2019.

Musharraf, who died on February 5 this year, had filed the appeal four years ago.

“A four-member larger bench, headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan Qazi Faiz Isa, heard the appeal against a decision to dissolve the special court that was previously hearing the Musharraf treason case,” The Express Tribune newspaper reported.
