Details of what we told you earlier...

Pakistan's beleaguered President Asif Ali Zardari made no offer to resign during a meeting of top leaders of the country's ruling coalition that was held after the Supreme Court warned it could take action against him, the presidential spokesman said today. 

Reacting to reports in a section of the media that said Zardari had offered to resign during a meeting of the Pakistan People's Party and its allies late last night, presidential spokesman Farhatullah Babar said, "There is no truth in these reports. Neither in the allies' meeting on Tuesday night nor at any other stage has the President offered to resign and the reports suggesting otherwise are contrary to the facts  and reality of the situation," Babar said in a brief statement.
