Chitral, (Pakistan Point News - 11th Jun, 2018) : The nomination papers of former military ruler General (retd) Pervez Musharraf were submitted on Monday for NA-1, Chitral-1. The Supreme Court, last week, had directed the former president to appear before it. The court had assured that he would not be arrested upon appearance on June 13. The All Pakistan Muslim League spokesman submitted Pervez Musharraf's nomination papers today. Earlier in the day, the apex court ordered the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) to unblock the computerised national identity card (CNIC) and passport of former president Musharraf.
While hearing the high treason case against Musharraf, the CJP had remarked: "I will ask returning officers to accept Musharraf's nomination papers but conditional to the final verdict on his appeal." After the apex court's orders, politicians had expressed reservations over the decision.
