After rejection of papers from all provinces and a lifetime ban slapped on General (r) Pervez Musharraf’s political career, his All Pakistan Muslim League (APML) was left with no choice but to announce a boycott of the May 11 elections on Friday.
The spokesman of the party made the announcement at a press conference in Islamabad.
“The rejection of General (r) Pervez Musharraf’s candidacy papers has resulted in this decision by the party,” said APML spokesman Muhammad Amjad.
“General Musharraf will face all cases against him and will not run away from any charges,” he added.
