RAWALPINDI, Pakistan, Dec. 23— Sheik Mujibur Rahman, the detained East Pakistani leader, has been brought to Rawalpindi for negotiations with President Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, official sources said today. It was not disclosed when the two men would meet.

Sheik Mujib was arrested in March after the Pakistani army began to suppress the Bengali movement for autonomy in. East Pakistan. He was brought to West Pakistan and was put on trial before a special military court on charges of treason and waging war against Pakistan.

President Bhutto was quoted by the Pakistan radio yesterday as having said that the views of the people of Pakistan would have to be taken into account before any decision could be made on whether to free Sheik Mujib.

Khan Wali Khan, leader of the usually pro‐Moscow National Awami party, was reported to be acting as a mediator between the two men and to have met with Sheik Mujib today.

Mr. Bhutto this week rescinded a ban against the National Awami party imposed by the former President, Agha Mohammad Yahya Khan, whom he replaced following Pakistan's defeat in the war with India.

Mr. Bhutto, in his first broadcast as President, pledged to seek to restore ties with East Pakistan and to bring back democracy to the entire country.

He said that new ties must be established with East Pakistan, no matter how loose. He said that East Bengal belonged to Pakistan and that he was relying on world opinion, the great powers and the fact that India would soon have trouble with East Pakistan to bring about a reunion between Pakistan's two wings.
