Pervez Musharraf can appeal this verdict in Supreme Court
Musharraf was booked in the treason case in December 2013
Musharraf was indicted on March 31, 2014
Symbolic justice has been done by the courts
This decision sets an important precedent for those who think they have immunity from the law in Pakistan. This sentence is for dictatorship and its supporters. Capital Punishment to Gen. Musharraf (on 03 Nov 2007) is a “wise decision” that will stop all future military interventions into politics. He killed so many people in Balochistan and NWFP. Many innocent children, women, and the elderly were killed by Musharraf after he launched a scathing attack on Dera Bugti. Traitor Musharraf kept the Taliban in his lap. I’m glad the court came to this decision at this very convenient time, and I agree with it. It is a big decision. Those who are cheering that it can’t be implemented do not have a point. The important point is he was found guilty and was awarded the toughest public punishment the court could give and he was a former military dictator. That says a lot.
