May i remind you that Musharraff was travelling back from Sri Lanka when the drama started to unfold, his plane wasn't even being allowed to land, wonder where you pick up your stories from.And Musharraf was on the verge of being arrested when Musharraf staged a coup to establish his dictatorship...
About Indian casualties, since this was not a clandestine operation, it wouldnt have been possible for IA to hide deaths of 4500 soldiers (using your figure of 5000 coffins) forever..
It would have been much easier on the pakistani side since a large part of the force was irregulars from militant organizations...
As for the real casualty figure, read Brian Cloughley's, " War Drums Are Beating", to your heart's content.
