Musharraf also discussed about the proposed lawyers' march, to which several parties including the Nawaz Sharif headed Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) have lent support.

It is believed that Musharraf is trying to send a message to Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani through Pagara, who is Gilani's close relative, The News reports.

However, Pagara has denied reports that his meeting with the former President had anything to do with politics.

"Musharraf was just making a courtesy call to inquire about my health and nothing else," Pagara said. (ANI)
