No intention of leaving Pakistan: Husain Haqqani
2011-12-02
[Dawn] Pakistain's former ambassador to the United States Hussain Haqqani said on Thursday he had no intention of leaving the country, DawnNews reported.

He further said that he had no palaces waiting for him in Soddy Arabia.

Earlier, PML-N chief Nawaz Sharif

had moved the Supreme Court on the memogate scandal filing an application calling for restrictions on Haqqani from leaving Pakistain.

Haqqani on Thursday claimed that he himself had tendered his resignation so that an independent investigation could be conducted on the issue.

Haqqani had resigned from his position of ambassador days after Pak-American businessman Mansoor Ijaz accused him of being behind the alleged memo that said the military was plotting a coup and appealed to the Pentagon to help ward it off.

Haqqani has denied any connection with the memo.
