ISLAMABAD:
The federal capital is rife with speculation about a special plane
landing at the Noor Khan Airbase to take former military ruler General
(retd) Pervez Musharraf out of the country.
The speculations about the landing of business aircraft started swirling hours after the Special Court disposed of two petitions filed by the accused seeking permission for traveling abroad.
The court ruled that the former military strongman was put on the Exit Control List (ECL) by the government and it had no authority to remove the travel restriction.
The court further said that the government which banned the accused from traveling abroad was authorized to remove his name from the ECL.
Our correspondent says the plane seems to be an air ambulance and has been parked away from lights at the airbase.
Sources in Dubai told Geo News that security arrangements have been made at the residence of Pervez Musharraf.
Musharraf who ruled the county from 1999 to 2008 is being treated for his heart disease at a medical facility run by the Pakistan Army. The former SSG commando in his applications had prayed the court to allow him to travel abroad for his treatment as well as to visit his ailing mother.
Political analysts are of the view that the Special Court had thrown the ball in the government’s court.
