ISLAMABAD: Former president and military dictator Pervez Musharraf was indicted by an anti-terrorism court in the judges detention case on Saturday, Dawn News reported.
Musharraf was indicted during a hearing at his farmhouse in Chak Shahzad.
Dawn News reports that the former president has refused to accept the charges against him.
Musharraf was facing terrorism charges in the case, which was based on a First Information Report (FIR) registered against him on August 11, 2009 by the Secretariat police for detaining over 60 judges including Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry.
Musharraf, who returned from four years of self-imposed exile in March, has been under house arrest at his villa on the edge of Islamabad since April 19. He is barred from leaving the country.
He was earlier formally arrested on suspicion of Akbar Bugti’s murder.
