Former President General (retired) Pervez Musharraf was on April 26, formally arrested over the murder case of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, reports Daily Times. Musharraf will remain in his villa on the edge of Islamabad (Federal Capital) where he is already under a two-week house arrest over his decision to sack judges when he imposed emergency rule in November 2007. “Today FIA (Federal Investigative Agency) formally arrested General Musharraf in the Benazir Bhutto case,” prosecution lawyer Chaudhry Azhar told AFP by telephone. During the interrogation, the former President was asked why Benazir Bhutto was not provided security upon her return to Pakistan. Upon this, Musharraf replied that she was provided complete security. He also refused to accept the allegations against him by saying that Benazir Bhutto became the target of terrorists. It has also been learnt that the FIA will file a petition seeking the physical remand of Musharraf in the Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) on April 26 (today). Earlier on April 25, the ATC had allowed the FIA to include Musharraf in the investigation of Benazir Bhutto murder case.

Former President General (retired) Pervez Musharraf was rearrested in Lal Masjid (Red Mosque) killing case hours after submitting surety bonds in the Supreme Court on October 10, reports Dawn. The apex court had asked Musharraf to submit two surety bonds of PKR 1 million each to the Supreme Court Registrar. The re-arrest came after he had been granted bail in three other cases and his lawyer said on October 9, 2013 that he was cleared to leave the country. Assassination of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto (December 27, 2007), death of Baloch nationalist leader Nawab Akbar Bugti (August 26, 2006) and detention of deposed Supreme Court judges (2007) were the other three major cases registered against the former military strongman. “We have put General Musharraf under house arrest in a case involving a military operation on an Islamabad mosque,” Muhammad Rizwan, a senior official of the Islamabad Police said, adding, “We will present him before a court on Friday (October 12, 2013)”.

An Afghan man said to be on a suicide mission was arrested after a brief encounter with security personnel in Tarnol area, a suburbs of Islamabad, on November 14, reports Dawn. According to sources, Matiullah had arrived from Afghanistan via Torkham a few days ago and stayed at a house in Tarnol area. He was reported to be wearing jacket stuffed with about five kilograms of explosives and was planning to attack a 9th Muharram procession near Asna Ashari Imambargah at G-6/2. The sources said the bomber had been arrested on information provided by an alleged Afghan agent detained by a team of security forces and capital police. Syed Mohammad Abdullah told interrogators that he had brought the bomber from Torkham for attacking the procession. The sources said Abdullah used to work for an Afghan intelligence agency. He had also spied for the French Embassy in Islamabad from 1996 to 2010. He had been arrested by Khasadars in Khyber Agency in December 2010 when his movement in Wazir Dhand aroused suspicion. Abdullah was handed over to a joint investigation team comprising officials of the ISI, Intelligence Bureau and police. The report submitted by the team said that he had been involved in spying against Pakistan. The report said that two cases, one relating to a murder attempt, had been registered against him in the Margalla Police Station in 2010.
