Pakistan's former military dictator Pervez Musharraf has been sentenced to death after being found guilty of high treason.
The case was brought against the ex-president for imposing a state of emergency in the country in 2007, suspending the constitution and detaining politicians and judges.
Pakistan's anti-terrorism court sentenced Musharraf to death on charges of high treason and subverting the constitution, a senior government official said.
The former dictator is now living in self-exile in Dubai and was found guilty in his absence despite attempts to halt the proceedings while insisting he was innocent.

They can't actually extradite him, and they probably won't send somebody to assassinate him. They're just making sure he never comes back.
and I notice that Russia id willing to welcome their agent
