The SHC has declared former president Pervez Musharraf an absconder after he failed to appear in court.

KARACHI:

The Sindh High Court (SHC) has declared former president Pervez Musharraf an absconder for not appearing in court on several notices.



The verdict was given on a petition filed by Maulvi Iqbal Haider.


Haider maintained that Musharraf had misused his authority and imposed the Provisional Constitutional Order (PCO)  in the country. He requested the court to register a case of treason against Musharraf for violating the constitution.


The SHC issued various notices to the former president, but when he failed to appear, declared him an absconder.
