ISLAMABAD: After a claim from American magazine Foreign Policy that President Asif Ali Zardari might step down as President, sources close to Zardari denied the magazine’s report by saying that reports of President’s resignation on account of ill health are fabricated.

“President Zardari is absolutely fine and he is expected to return after routine medical checkup” said sources.

The sources said that the magazine’s report is baseless and President Zardari will complete his tenure.

A US magazine reported on Wednesday that President Asif Ali Zardari may have angioplasty on Wednesday and may also resign on account of ‘ill health’.

The magazine also reported that US government was informed that Zardari had a ‘minor heart attack’ on Monday night and flew to Dubai via air ambulance on Tuesday.

US magazine quoted its source that over a dozen of Zardari’s ambassadors in foreign countries were in the process of being recalled in what might be a precursor to Zardari stepping down as president.
