ISLAMABAD: A district and sessions court in Islamabad rejected former president (retd) Pervez Musharraf ’s exemption plea in the Abdul Rasheed Ghazi murder case, Express News reported on Tuesday.
Musharraf is due to appear before the court on November 8.
On September 2, 2013, a case was registered against Musharraf for the murder of the former cleric and his mother during the Lal Masjid operation.
The case was filed after Haroon Rasheed, Ghazi’s son, submitted an application at the Aabpara police station for the registration of an FIR against the former president. In the application, Haroon had referred to about 20 pages of the Lal Masjid Commission report, which held the former president responsible for the operation.

Those who still think after release of this commission report that Lal Mosque Operation was wrong or so was Mushraf are living in fool's paradise...read the report again and see who were inside Lal Mosque when the operation started...
It was the right action by Musharaff, it was a little late though.
Justice should prevail, many innocents were brutally killed that unfortunate night.
