Former president General (retd) Pervez Musharraf on Friday petitioned the Supreme Court (SC) to return Rs 2 million submitted as surety bonds in the Akbar Bugti case.
According to a private TV channel, in the petition filed by Musharraf’s lawyer, the former army chief has contended that he was acquitted in the case and therefore should be returned the bond money.
The SC constituted a three-member bench headed by Justice Mushir Alam. The petition’s hearing was fixed for September 12.
