    Former President Asif Ali Zardari denied holding any meeting with Moulana Fazal ur Rehman in London recently, terming the assertion in a section of the media that he has reached some understanding with the Prime Minister on the issue of Panama leaks as untrue, baseless and motivated.

    In a press statement issued by PPP media cell Sunday, Zardari said that the PPP stated categorically that the party had already decided to pursue the Panama leaks issue to its logical conclusion.

    A parliamentary committee has already been set up which is engaged in drawing up the Terms of Reference for investigations and how to proceed in the matter and there is no question of ignoring it, he said.

    The former president said that PPP has arrived at a well-considered stance on the issue after due deliberations not only within the party but also with all political parties.

    Media reports calculated to give any impression that I may have a different stance on the issue are untrue and baseless and seem motivated to create confusion, he said.
