Leaders of Musharraf's All Pakistan Muslim League told the media that he had delayed his plans to return to Pakistan later this month after consulting friends and party leaders
Pakistan's ruling Pakistan People's Party has begun secret negotiations with Pervez Musharraf's party to isolate its rival Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz) and to facilitate the former military ruler's possible return to the country, a media report said on Monday.
Pakistan's Election Commission has put off a decision on recognising former President Pervez Musharraf's All Pakistan Muslim League party due to objections over its name and symbol. However, it has registered 14 new political parties.
The political scene in Pakistan appears to be heating up, with cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan's Tehrik-e-Insaf party indicating that it is open to an alliance with former military ruler Pervez Musharraf. The party's new vice-chairman Shah Mahmood Qureshi said a decision on forming an alliance with Musharraf's All Pakistan Muslim League will be taken in due course of time after considering circumstances. His comments come in the wake of political ripples.
Pakistan Supreme Court on Wednesday granted bail to embattled former military ruler Pervez Musharraf in the Nawab Akbar Bugti murder case.
