An American surgeon has issued a public denial to reports that she has secretly married Pakistan President, Asif Ali Zardari, the widower of Benazir Bhutto.
Reports have swirled around Pakistan that President Zardari was married in Dubai, just over three years after the assassination of his wife, the former PM.
However, the president's lawyers have now begun legal proceedings against a newspaper group that published details of the alleged romance.
The woman at the centre of the rumour, Tanveer Zamani, a 47-year-old doctor, has denied she married him in a ceremony last month.
