Former Pakistani President Berbez Musarrat was formally accused of high treason, a charge that could lead to the death penalty. The accusation stems from his imposition of a state of emergency and suspension of the constitution during his rule from 1999 to 2008. Musarrat, who returned to Pakistan in 2013 after years in exile, faces multiple legal challenges, including accusations related to the assassination of Benazir Bhutto. Despite being released on bail, he remains unable to leave the country and is currently hospitalized due to heart problems.
