DUBAI: Former army chief General (R) Pervez Musharraf has said that the special court's death penalty verdict against him was based on "personal vendetta", Geo News reported.
"I heard the special court's verdict against me on television," Musharraf said in a video message released on Wednesday. "There is no example of such a verdict in the past where neither the defendant nor his lawyers were given permission to speak in his defence."
Musharraf said he had offered to give his statement to a special commission if they visit him in Dubai, where the former military dictator is currently undergoing medical treatment.
Musharraf said his request was ignored.
"I call this verdict suspicious because supremacy of the law was ignored from the start to the end during the hearings of this case," he said.
