April 08, 2013 23:57

The Pakistan Supreme Court today directed the government to ensure that former President Pervez Musharraf does not leave the country as it ordered him to appear before it tomorrow to face treason allegations.

A two-judge bench led by Justice Jawad S Khwaja issued the directives after hearing preliminary arguments on five petitions seeking Musharraf's trial for treason for subverting the constitution and declaring an emergency in 2007.

The bench said Musharraf or his lawyer should appear in court tomorrow to respond to the allegations.
