Pakistani police have detained former President Pervez Musharraf and presented him in court after he fled when a judge ordered his arrest on Thursday. Musharraf was arrested at his farmhouse residence on the outskirts of Islamabad early on Friday and taken to court over allegations he committed treason while in office.
He had been holed up in the property following his dramatic flight from court on Thursday, after having already been banned from leaving the country. TV footage showed Musharraf being escorted by uniformed police officers to an Islamabad court, following his overnight arrest, Reuters reports.
Musharraf was brought before a judge at Islamabad District Court. It is yet to be decided whether he will be detained in prison or placed under house arrest.
