Islamabad, Sep 27 (IANS): In a major set-back to Pakistan's former president Pervez Musharraf, the country's Supreme Court Friday rejected his request for release in the murder case of Balochistan leader Nawab Akbar Bugti, a media report said.

A Supreme Court bench headed by Justice Nasirul Mulk rejected Musharraf's verbal request for release, saying that he must be present in person before the court for its judgment, reported the DawnNews.

Musharraf is also facing other charges, including conspiracy to kill former prime minister Benazir Bhutto.

Nawab Akbar Bugti was killed Aug 26 during a military operation ordered by Musharraf, who was at that time Pakistan's president and the army chief.
