Former Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari has denied being in exile and said he would return to Pakistan within the next few weeks, the media reported on Monday.

The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader, who has divided his time between London and Dubai since June 2015, said he would return to the country "soon", Geo News reported.

Zardari, who was the President from 2008 to 2013, abruptly left the country last year after giving a hard-hitting speech in which he hit out at the military establishment for overstepping its domain.
