An accountability court on Tuesday was informed by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) that transactions have been made from the frozen bank accounts of former president General (r) Pervez Musharraf.
This revelation was made when FIA presented its report during the hearing of Benazir Bhutto murder case.
According to the report, the former president had made transactions from his bank accounts despite them being frozen under the orders of the court. Judge Asghar Khan expressed anger over this and issued a notice to the relevant SHO and summoned a report until February 15. The court also sought a report on the assets and accounts of the former president.
Musharraf has already been declared an absconder by the anti-terrorism court (ATC). He was named by the court in the case in February 2011. On August 31, 2017, the ATC in Rawalpindi announced the verdict in the Benazir Bhutto murder case and awarded 17-year imprisonment for two police officials — City Police Officer (CPO) Saud Aziz and Khurram Shahzad. However, the high court had later granted them bail.
