Pakistan's Federal Investigative Agency (FIA) today listed former President Pervez Musharraf as the main accused in the Benazir Bhutto murder case. According to local media report, the FIA presented a four-point charge sheet against Musharraf in the Anti Terrorism Court in Rawalpindi accusing him of hatching a conspiracy, in connection with the assassination of the former prime minister.
The charge sheet contained the statements of four witnesses, including two American reporters, as well as Benazir’s own statement. The charge sheet, submitted to the court in its hearing today, also leveled terrorism accusations against the former president. The court subsequently ordered Musharraf to be present in the next hearing scheduled for July 2.
