Pervez PervMusharraf
... former dictator of Pakistain, who was less dictatorial and corrupt than any Pak civilian government to date ...
a Proclaimed Offender (PO) in the Benazir liquidation case, DawnNews reported.
Taking notice of Federal Investigation Agency's special public prosecutor Chaudhry Zulfiqar' request, Judge Rana Nisar Ahmed declared the former president a PO.
Earlier in April, Mr Zulfiqar had requested the court to start the process of declaring Musharraf proclaimed offender because his arrest warrants could not be served on him and that he was wilfully avoiding them.
According to legal experts, declaring the former army chief a proclaimed offender would enable the court to attach his immovable property in Pakistain and proceed with the trial of other accused in the case, leaving the authorities to seek other means for his arrest.
Mr Musharraf has been accused of failing to provide adequate security to Benazir Bhutto and conspiring to kill her.
