                       Pakistan's Musharraf Granted Bail

   A court in Pakistan has granted bail to former president Pervez
   Musharraf for the 2007 commando raid on a militant mosque that left a
   cleric and dozens of other people dead.
   The ruling brings Mr. Musharraf a step closer to possible release after
   months under house arrest.
   The former general has now been granted bail in all the cases brought
   against him since his return to Pakistan from self-imposed exile,
   including one relating to the assassination of former prime minister
   Benazir Bhutto.
   Mr. Musharraf took power in a 1999 coup and later ruled as president
   until resigning under threat of impeachment by his opponents in 2008.
   He then went into exile.
   He returned to Pakistan in March in a bid to resurrect his political
   career.
