Former President General (r) Pervez Musharraf has been advised by his doctors to immediately seek medical treatment abroad.

According to a medical report the former president has spinal fractures which cannot be treated in Pakistan due to a lack of expertise. Medical experts are of the view that Pakistan lacks technology to treat such an injury.

The five member medical board has recommended that Musharraf can receive treatment in Dubai, North America and Europe.

The report by the medical team comes a day after the federal government opposed removing Musharraf’s name from the Exit Control List (ECL) in its reply submitted in the Sindh High Court (SHC).

According to the federation’s response the SHC was not authorised to hear the case pertaining to removing Musharraf’s name from the ECL as the order to place the former president on the list was issued by the Supreme Court.

The Sindh High Court will resume hearing of the case on Wednesday.
