ISLAMABAD, Dec 3: Alliance for the Restoration of Democracy chairman Makhdoom Amin Fahim left for Dubai to meet PPP chairperson Benazir Bhutto, a source told Dawn here on Friday.
The source said that Ms Bhutto had summoned Mr Fahim to Dubai to discuss political developments in the wake of the release of her husband Asif Ali Zardari.
Mr Fahim's visit to Dubai only two days before the launching of an anti-government campaign by the ARD is considered significant particularly amid reports of 'indirect' contacts between the PPP and President Gen Pervez Musharraf.
Though the PPP has been constantly denying reports of any 'direct' contact with the government, certain government representatives have been giving the impression that a reconciliation process between the regime and the PPP was under way. When contacted, PPP spokesman Senator Farhatullah Khan Babar said Mr Fahim had gone to Dubai on a 'routine visit'.
