Pakistan army chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa recently visited the ailing former President and army chief Gen (retd) Pervez Musharraf in Dubai, the media reported on Saturday. Bajwa, accompanied by top physicians of the Pakistan Army, spent some time with Musharraf and his family at their apartment in Dubai while the army doctors examined the 78-year-old former military ruler, The Express Tribune newspaper quoted a source, who was also present during the meeting, as saying.
The former military ruler was in 2018 in the UAE diagnosed with a life-threatening condition called Amyloidosis.
Amyloidosis is a group of rare and serious conditions that are caused by a build up of an abnormal protein called amyloid in organs and tissues throughout the body, according to the UK’s National
Health Service. If left untreated, these protein deposits can lead to organ failure. According to the sources close to the former military ruler’s family, “Musharraf and his family greeted the Chief of Army Staff (COAS) with great delight”.
