New Delhi: A video has gone viral showing former Pakistan president Pervez Musharraf, accused in a high treason case, dancing with his wife Sehba Musharraf at a party.
The video was first tweeted by Pakistani journalist Hamid Mir on Sunday.
Notably, Musharraf had left Pakistan and gone to the UAE for treatment in March 2016.
Wearing brown kameez and white shalwar, Musharraf is seen dancing with his wife on famous song “shakar wandan re”.

The video has surfaced at a time when the tensions between India and Pakistan are running high in the wake of the Uri attack.
Musharraf, who stepped down in 2008, is the first military ruler in Pakistan's history to be tried for high treason, a crime punishable by death or life imprisonment, according to legal experts.
His imposition of emergency rule and suspension of the Constitution in 2007 are viewed as treason.
Weeks after assuming office for the third time, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif had in June 2013 informed Parliament about the filing of high treason charges against Musharraf.
