NEW YORK: Former President General Pervez Musharraf said he would come to Pakistan before elections where his party, All Pakistan Muslim League (APML), will be participating in general elections as a third political alternative that would change the existing system.

 

Pervez Musharraf was talking to media on the sideline of his party meeting.

 

Former president admitted that the National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO) was his mistake and on oath claimed that no girl-students or girls were killed in the Lal Masjid tragedy.

 

He said that back home he would neither seek mercy from anyone nor would beg for pardon. But, he again didn’t give any definite date of his return to the homeland.

 

He said that if the government provides him the same level of security as he provided to former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto during his tenure, he would be pleased. He said that he was prepared to face all eventualities on his return to Pakistan including the cases and the arrest.
