Former federal interior minister Aftab Ahmed Khan Sherpao and home minister Mir Shoaib Nosherwani were present in the court during the hearing while counsel for former president Musharraf presented an application for his exemption from appearance on health grounds.
The judge remarked that the exemption from appearance before the court could only be granted after examination of the former president by a medical board.The court expressed resentment over the non-constitution of the medical board and summoned the director general, health, Balochistan, at the next hearing of the case on February 4.
