All Pakistan Muslim League (APML) Chief Coordinator Zahid Sarfaraz has said APML head and former president Pervez Musharraf has no hand in the assassination of late PPP chairwoman Benazir Bhutto. “As matter of fact, Benazir’s killers are those who changed her route and made her sit in a vehicle that had a sunroof. Baitullah Mehsood and the Haqqani network are being repeatedly blamed to distract the attention and hide the facts,” he said while addressing a press conference at the APML provincial secretariat on Thursday.
Sarfaraz said nobody but he himself had advised Musharraf to not to return to Pakistan, saying since the day Musharraf had announced his homecoming, unrest had sparked in the government circles. “Musharraf stayed in Pakistan for eight months after stepping down but nobody filed any case against him,” he said. However, he assured that days were not far when the APML chief would be here among his people. Reacting to Interior Minister Rehman Malik’s statement, he said Interpol did not have spare time to arrest Musharraf on Malik’s request. He said everyone knew that Musharraf was not involved in the deaths of Benazir and Akbar Bugti.
