Musharraf besieged in farmhouse after arrest order
ISLAMABAD: Former military ruler Pervez Musharaf is besieged in his Chak Shahzad farmhouse after he fled the Islamabad High Court following his arrest orders.

The beleaguered ex-president appeared before Justice Shaukat Siddiqui in judges detention case registered in 2009 and fled the court after the judge cancelled his pre-arrest bail.

Inspector General Islamabad Police will appear before the court today (Friday) as the IHC ordered him to inform the court as to what action has been taken against those officers responsible for Musharraf’s escape.
