Treason trial: Shaukat moved summary for emergency, reveals Musharraf

Musharraf files 2 applications, stating that documents provided by interior ministry upon request were incomplete.

ISLAMABAD: A day before the special court begins recording testimony in his treason trial, Pervez Musharraf has revealed that before the imposition of emergency in 2007, then premier Shaukat Aziz forwarded a written summary to him. The former president Musharraf filed two applications on Wednesday, stating that the documents provided to him by the interior ministry upon request were incomplete. In one of the applications, he revealed that he had met the then governors, services chiefs, bureaucrats and politicians between July 1, 2007 and November 3, 2007. He asked that the protocol section and security in-charge of the President’s  House and their counterparts at the President’s Camp Office be asked to submit details of the president’s programmes and the people who entered the facilities during this time to the court. In his second application, the former president asked the court to reframe charges against him since the old charges were framed without providing him necessary documents.
