Islamabad, (Pakistan Point News - 7th Jun, 2018) : On request of Interior Ministry, the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA), on Thursday blocked the Computerized National Identity Card (CNIC) of former president General (Retd) Pervez Musharraf. After blockade of CNIC, the passport of Musharraf is automatically suspended and the accounts have been frozen, sources said adding that he (Musharraf) has also been deprived of sale and purchase of his more than 10 properties in Pakistan.

It is worth mentioning here that the former president owns four plots in Karachi and three properties in Islamabad. During last week, the Interior Ministry had requested NADRA to block the CNIC of Pervez Musharraf on the directives of special court. The Interior Ministry gave a week to Musharraf warning him that his CNIC and passport would be blocked if he did not surrender within a week. A special court on March 16, in its written order in a high treason case against Gen (R) Pervez Musharraf directed the Interior Ministry to take steps for the arrest and extradition of the former military dictator from Arab Emirate to Pakistan.

Earlier on Thursday, the Supreme Court (SC) allowed former president Pervez Musharraf to submit his nomination papers for the upcoming general election with conditions. The apex court also directed the former president to appear before it on June 13 at its Lahore registry and assured him that he won't be arrested in case of his attendance.
