President Asif Zardari flew to Dubai on Tuesday triggering a seemingly endless stream of contradictory statements from his top aides, speculation from ‘insiders’ and ‘experts’, and wild conjecture that the county’s powerful security establishment was plotting to oust the embattled leader from office, leading to a frenetic day for those following the story.
