‘Air Ambulance Arranged For Ailing Musharraf’s Return To Pakistan’
Arrangements for ailing former president Pervez Musharraf’s return to Pakistan have reportedly been made after the advice of his doctors. An air ambulance is said to have been arranged to bring him back.

This was stated by senior journalist Kamran Shahid. In a tweet, he wrote that all arrangements for Musharraf’s return to Pakistan have been made, including air ambulance. He added that the Pakistan Army stands with Musharraf.

Earlier, PML-N leader Khawaja Asif had said that in view of Musharraf's ill health, there should be no obstacle for him to return home. He had added that past events should not be allowed to be hindered in this regard.

Last week, Musharraf’s family had said that the former president has been hospitalised for the last three weeks due to a complication of his ailment (amyloidosis).

"Going through a difficult stage where recovery is not possible and organs are malfunctioning. Pray for ease in his daily living," the statement had added.

The statement had come amid rumours of his death doing the rounds on social media.

In 2014, Musharraf was indicted for suspending the Constitution on November 3, 2007. He was awarded the death sentence in absentia in a high treason case by a special court in December 2019. However, a court had later nullified the ruling.
