Pakistan President General Pervez Musharraf on Wednesday told mediapersons in Islamabad to expect a 'big' missile test in the next two months.

He made this revelation while replying to queries about pressure from the US to roll back its nuclear and missile weapons development programme. Local publications reported that he insisted there would not be any kind of roll back.
