Pakistan's Zardari returns home

KARACHI, Pakistan - Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari, who was in Dubai for medical treatment, returned on Monday to Pakistan, where tension is rising between his civilian government and the military over a memo accusing the country's generals of plotting a coup.

It's not clear when the leader who has uneasy ties with the army will return to work. He flew into the southern city of Karachi.

"The president is thankfully fit and healthy and that is why he has returned," said Shazia Marri, information minister for Sindh province, of which Karachi is the capital.
