Former president General (retd) Pervez Musharraf could reportedly leave Pakistan.

Speculations are rife that Musharraf can leave the country after a special aircraft of a Gulf country was spotted at the Noor Khan Airbase in Rawalpindi.

Meanwhile, his lawyer Senator Farogh Nasim has filed a formal request with the Interior Ministry to allow him to travel abroad, Dawn News reports.

According to the report, rumours began circulating about Musharraf's departure from Pakistan when news of his illness started circulating last week and subsequent admission in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the Armed Forces Institute of Cardiology (AFIC) came.
