Pakistan’s Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld a 2019 death sentence for former dictator General Pervez Musharraf, who a lower court found guilty of treason and abrogating the country’s constitution for his coup and junta that lasted from 1999 to 2008, DPS International reports.
Musharraf was unavailable for comment on the decision as he died in exile in Dubai last February, his remains repatriated and buried at a military cemetery in Karachi. It’s not clear how the sentence will be carried out given those circumstances, but we guess that exhuming his skeleton and tying it to a post in front of a firing squad is a possibility. Pakistan’s a funny place like that.
