Hospitalised Pervez Musharraf has lost ability to think: Pakistan minister

Pakistan's former military ruler Gen (retd) Pervez Musharraf is physically fit, but has lost his ability to make decisions, Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting has said.

Pervez Rashid said that Musharraf was in trouble because of his own strategies, as the former president faces treason charges.

Rashid said that the hospital has proved a blind alley for him, adding that if Musharraf came out, he faces the court while being admitted in the hospital.

According to Dawn News, he added that the dictator would have to face the law.

About Musharraf's possible exile, Rashid said the law and the constitution were supreme and equal for all, and that there was no room in the law that a culprit could leave the country without being tried.
