BB murder case: Arrest warrant for Musharraf issued
RAWALPINDI: An anti-terrorism court (ATC) in Rawalpindi has issued arrest warrant against former president General (rtd) Pervaiz Musharraf in Benazir Bhutto’s (BB) murder case, Geo News reported Saturday.

The court was hearing the case involving the murder of former prime minister and PPP leader Benazir Bhutto today.

The petitioner told the court that even after being summoned and proclaimed as offender, Musharraf did not appear in the court, therefore, the court should give orders to confiscate his property.

While taking notice, the ATC issued permanent non-bailable arrest warrant against former president and ordered to submit details of his movable and immovable property in the court.

The court adjourned the hearing for two weeks.
