 There is no truth to the announcement by a PPP leader that Benazir Bhutto will be returning to Pakistan next month, sources revealed to Daily Times.
| "Nope. Nope. Ain't gonna happen..." |
Inquiries by Daily Times from those with knowledge of the PPP chairperson's plans and movements produced the following written response, "No date for her return has been finalised yet. When the date is finalised, it will be announced by her media office. It seems that Khalid Kharal has been misquoted." PPP leader Khalid Kharal was quoted in a report by a news agency (carried by Daily Times on Wednesday) as having said at Toba Tek Singh on Tuesday that Ms Bhutto would return to Pakistan by the end of February. "Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto will be coming back to Pakistan to lead her party workers, activists and supporters by the end of February this year," he was said to have told reporters. |
