On Saturday morning when ATC Judge Syed Kausar Abbas Zaidi resumed hearing of the case in sub-jail Chak Shahzad, the prosecutor read the charge sheet against the accused, who denied the allegations.
Subsequently the court adjourned the matter till June 21.
The case is based on a First Information Report (FIR) registered against Musharraf on August 11, 2009 by the Secretariat police for detaining over 60 judges including Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry.
On June 11, the Islamabad High Court granted him bail against surety bonds worth Rs 500,000.
Musharraf, who returned from four years of self-imposed exile in March, has been under house arrest at his villa on the edge of Islamabad since April 19. He is barred from leaving the country.
He was earlier formally arrested on suspicion of Akbar Bugti’s murder.
