The family of Musharraf moved from Kotana to Delhi in 1943 and started living there for three-and-a-half years and moved to Pakistan at the time of partition in 1947. But apart from Delhi, his family’s mansion and agricultural land were present in Kotana.
Musharraf’s land was sold earlier. The remaining land belonged to his brother Dr Javed Musharraf and his family members.
