by The Canadian Parvasi
Pakistan’s former President and Chief of Army staff Pervez Musharraf died on Sunday at the American Hospital in Dubai after battling a long-term serious illness.
The 79-year-old ex-President had been living in exile in Dubai for the last eight years. The former Chief of Army had been living in self-imposed exile after being accused of the assassination of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto in 2007, and had expressed his wish to return to Pakistan as soon as possible.
He had been battling amyloidosis, a rare ailment that causes issues to connective tissues and organs, inhibiting normal functioning.
