As for your new theory about him getting money from his brothers and sisters, there are ways to check that. You cannot just expect his brother to send him fat checks to Pakistan to buy property, just like that. Also, the army isnt that saintly either, they take over land through extortion and thuggerish manners too. Someone here suggested he had 'wealthy children'. Lets see now, he has two kids, and lets just rule out the possibility that he gets money from his married daughter (though he did get money by selling Pakistanis  ), leaving his son, who has worked for Watson Wyatt Worldwide from 2000-2005, and now works for ePlanet Ventures (2008-present), so we can rule him out too. Another thing that we are forgetting that he was a very lavish spender. The mujra sessions in the Army House, the hefty fee paid to lawyers to defend his unconstituitional actions, the learjets, his personal bookselling tour at the expense of the nation, all of this cost alot of money too.

I think religion could be a reason, if the judges were sympathetic to the cause of radical followers of Sharia investigated by Musharraf's government for terrorist activities. As far as the brother is concerned, I dont see why he couldnt be financing the property purchases. How fat would the checks have to be? I mean land prices were in the few thousand rupees, when the brother was making hundreds of thousands of dollars.
