<b>Presidentâs spokesman denies deal remarks</b>
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->ISLAMABAD : President Asif Ali Zardari backtracked on Wednesday on his reported remarks that he and âinternational guarantorsâ had negotiated an âindemnityâ for former president Gen (retd) Pervez Musharraf that paved the way for his âsafe exitâ.
The denial of media reports filed by journalists who had attended a reception at the presidency on Monday came after the opposition raised hue and cry over the statement.
<b>Political analysts believed that President Zardari had changed his statement because of political and international pressure.</b><!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
