No contact between Bhutto, Sharif: PPP
Former premiers Benazir Bhutto and Nawaz Sharif have not spoken since the latter returned from exile, party aides said on Tuesday. The two leaders spoke by telephone two weeks ago when she was under house arrest but since then, contact has been minimal. Benazirs spokesman Farhatullah Babar said that while Bhutto was ready to meet Sharif, nothing was planned. If they meet they will discuss how to make the elections free and fair or whether they should boycott the vote, Babar said. Senior PML-N official Siddiqul Farooq said Nawaz has suggested that party leaders should form a strategy against possible rigging of elections if they go to polls. Posted by: Fred 2007-11-28 |
