Pakistan's Musharraf formally arrested over Benazir Bhutto killing

None

Pakistan's former military ruler Pervez Musharraf was on Thursday formally arrested over the murder of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto, prosecutors said.
 

The Bhutto case is the second of three cases dating back to his 1999-2008 rule for which Musharraf has been arrested. The latest arrest came a day after a Pakistani court refused to extend his bail. Musharraf will remain in his villa on the edge of Islamabad where he is already under a two-week house arrest over his decision to sack judges when he imposed emergency rule in November 2007.(AFP)
