Report: Musharraf to Resign by Sunday Afternoon
Aaj Television reports that Pervez Musharraf has agreed to resign by Sunday afternoon.
This comes as part of a deal with the coalition government, secured by the Saudi intelligence chief Muqrin bin Abdul Aziz, who visited Pakistan today and met with Musharraf, Nawaz Sharif, and Shujaat Hussain.
As part of the deal, the Musharraf will not be prosecuted. Musharraf will also abstain from speaking to the media for 3-4 months and will not obstruct the government’s functioning.
It’s unclear as to whether Nawaz Sharif is on board.
