Abu Dhabi : The special flight from Dubai to repatriate the mortal remains of Pakistan’s former military ruler Pervez Musharraf was delayed, media reports said on Monday.
Musharraf, the architect of the Kargil War in 1999, died on Sunday in Dubai after a prolonged illness.
The 79-year-old former military ruler, who had been in the UAE since 2016, was undergoing treatment for amyloidosis at American Hospital Dubai.
Musharraf’s mortal remains were supposed to have been flown to Pakistan on a special flight at 11:30 am local time, according to Geo TV.
But the special flight has not arrived in Dubai so far.
“We were told the aircraft will leave Dubai on Monday morning with Pervez Musharraf’s body. We don’t even know the reason behind the delay,” Urdu news channel Aaj News reported.
