Musharraf delays homecoming without setting new date
28 January, 2012
DUBAI: Former president Pervez Musharraf has delayed his return home, the head of his party announced on Friday after repeated threats by the country's leadership that the ex-strongman would be arrested upon arrival. "He finally decided today that he would accept recommendations" of the executive committee of the All Pakistan Muslim League to delay his return, party Secretary General Muhammad Ali Saif told reporters. "This decision (of returning) will be deliberated by the core committee of the party," he said. Friends and supporters had urged Musharraf to put off an imminent homecoming after Islamabad said he would be arrested if he returned from more than three years of self-imposed exile in London and Dubai. End.
