Musharraf live tweets court appearance, doesn't mention shoe

Former Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf who headed to court to face legal charges after returning from self-imposed exile, live tweeted significant moments from his hearing but failed to mention the shoe that was hurled at him from inside the court premises. Musharraf who is an enthusiastic Twitter user, tweeted pictures of him leaving for court, standing when the judge arrived, waiting for his hearing to begin and talking to party supporters. https://twitter.com/P_Musharraf/status/317534396175486976 https://twitter.com/P_Musharraf/status/317537185681260544 https://twitter.com/P_Musharraf/status/317540062852177921 [caption id=“attachment_678774” align=“alignleft” width=“380”] One of the images tweeted out by Musharraf[/caption] Local TV channels showed a video of the shoe being thrown at Musharraf inside a court building. He is seen surrounded by a mob of supporters and journalists and it was difficult to tell from the video who threw the shoe or if it hit the former leader. Musharraf, who first seized power in a military coup in 1999, returned to Pakistan last weekend. He faces legal charges, including some originating from a probe of the 2007 assassination of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto. The former President had his protective bail extended for another 15 days. He arrived in Pakistan last Sunday, vowing to “save” the country in the upcoming Parliamentary elections.
