The Supreme Court of Pakistan on Monday suspended the Sindh High Court's earlier decision to strike off former military dictator General (retired) Pervez Musharraf's name from the Exit Control List (ECL).

According to a report by Dawn News, a five-judge larger bench of the apex court, headed by Justice Nasirul Mulk, accepted the government's plea challenging the high court's ruling which ordered the removal of Pervez Musharraf's name from the ECL.

While issuing its order, the Sindh High Court had said the operation of its judgment was suspended for 15 days enabling the federation to file an appeal in the Supreme Court.
