No deal with Musharraf on dual posts: Benazir


Former Pakistan prime minister Benazir Bhutto has said there is no agreement with Pervez Musharraf that he continue to hold the dual posts of Army Chief and President, but the issue need not be the reason for breaking the talks and could be settled in court.

Benazir, addressing a meeting of her supporters in the city Saturday evening, also said she would call a meet of top officials of her Pakistan People's Party (PPP) here towards the end of this month.

Sources close to her said she is expected to brief them on her meeting with President Musharraf and discuss the future course of action in view the forthcoming elections, including her possible return to the country.
