LAHORE, Pakistan, June 13 (UPI) -- Former Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif says President Pervez Musharraf is on his way out but that he won't be allowed to flee the country.

SAVE MONEY ON TRAVEL DEALS

Sharif, who was ousted by Musharraf in 1999 in a coup, said "the dictator is likely to flee the country but we'll foil it", Dawn reported from Lahore.

Sharif spoke at a gathering of lawyers participating in a march to Islamabad to press the reinstatement of judges dismissed by Musharraf during his brief emergency rule last year.

Sharif is the leader of a faction of the Pakistan Muslim League, one of the main parties in the new ruling coalition.

Sharif asked his party members not to waste energy on raising anti-Musharraf slogan as the president was on his way out, the report said.

Musharraf is under pressure since his party lost the elections in February and is fighting to save his job under threat of impeachment.
