Ext Crofton Hotel, South Kensington where meeting was held STORYLINE: Benazir Bhutto chaired a meeting of the Pakistan People's Party in London on Tuesday. Forty members of her party flew in from Pakistan to meet their former Prime Minister, who has been living in self-imposed exile in Britain for three years. It was her first meeting with senior members of her party since corruption charges against her were set aside by Pakistan's Supreme Court two weeks ago. Mrs Bhutto has vowed to return to Pakistan to lead her party in person and fight the next general election, which has yet to be declared by the military government led by General Pervez Musharraf. The issue of when she should return was discussed, but the deputy secretary general of her party was reluctant to commit to any date. A date for the retrial on the corruption charges has yet to be declared. Nineteen members of the PPP were prevented from travelling to the London meeting from Pakistan by the military government, and the meeting strongly condemned the action. They threw their full support behind Mrs Bhutto and say there is an air of expectation in Pakistan for her return.
