Former military ruler Pervez Musharraf has expressed regret that Pakistans recently retired army chief Ashfaq Parvez Kayani did not support him in face of treason charges.

Musharraf also ruled out making a request for clemency if convicted by the special court formed for the high treason trial the first time a military ruler has faced criminal charges in Pakistans history.

The 70-year-old former President expressed regret that Kayani,who was appointed by Musharraf and retired last month,did not support him when he was charged with treason,Express Tribune reported.

I will not request pardon (if convicted)…I will not opt for any solution which creates an impression that I acted out of fear, he said in an interview aired by Express News channel Sunday night.
