Musharraf says no regrets over Baluch rebel chief's death

Nawab Akbar Bugti, a Baluch nationalist who was killed in a Pakistani military operation last August, "was operating against the army," Musharraf said in an interview with India's NDTV network aired Friday.

Asked whether he had any regrets about the death of the white-bearded octogenarian, Musharraf replied "no."

Bugti was "maintaining an army of 6,000 people with... latest weapons and challenging the writ of the government, attacking our installations," the president said.
