Former president Pervez Musharraf on Sunday termed the government’s announcement to try him under Article 6 a desperate attempt to divert attention of people from Rawalpindi riots.
According to All Pakistan Muslim League (APML) sources, Musharraf has decided to courageously face the trail. He said that he had faced other cases against him in the courts and will face this trial as well in the same way.
Sources said Musharraf watched the press conference of Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan at his farmhouse in Shahzad Town along with his wife Sehba Musharraf, daughter Dr Ayla and son Bilal.
Musharraf said that the Rawalpindi incident has revealed the inability of the federal and provincial government to control the law and order and the whole press conference was arranged against him to hide the government’s failure.
He said that such accusations could not break him and force him to leave the country.
