Benazir likely to return home in September
LONDON: Chairperson Pakistan Peoples Party Benazir Bhutto has said a deal with Musharraf would be "very unpopular" and could lose votes for her party.
Chairperson Pakistan Peoples Party Benazir Bhutto said while talking to UK-based newspaper, she could return Pakistan as early as September.
Bhutto said she would only consider an agreement with Musharraf if she felt it necessary to guarantee fair and timely parliamentary elections.
"I said I would return by December, but now my people tell me we should go to court in regard to my return, and that I should come back as soon as possible, maybe in September," the Pakistan People's Party chairman said.
"We will decide at a party meeting at the end of August."
But she added that she felt "safer about returning" after the Supreme Court reinstated the country's top judge, Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry.
Bhutto, who was twice premier in the 1990s, told the paper that a deal with Musharraf would be "very unpopular" and could lose votes for her party.
