It rejected his plea seeking exemption from court appearances in the 2007 judges’ detention case. 72-year-old Musharraf last month flew to Dubai for purported treatment after the Supreme Court lifted bars on his foreign trips. Musharraf’s lawyer Akhtar Shah submitted the former army chief’s April 6 medical report. Anti terrorism court (ATC) judge Sohail Ikram maintained that the former military ruler left the country in March but the report presented in the court is of April.
