Suspect Salman Dar was part of the most wanted list of the Red Book and had a head money of Rs 500,000 on him, police said.
He is accused of manufacturing three suicide vests for carrying out the attack.
Dar has also admitted to being a member of the banned Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).
Musharraf’s motorcade was hit by a suicide attack in Rawalpindi in December 2003, in which the former president escaped unhurt.
The former president slipped out of the country in 2016 after a three-year travel ban was lifted. The former general imposed a martial law in 1999 by overthrowing the government of Nawaz Sharif. He is also the head of a political party, All Pakistan Muslim League.
