First of all, you should use the full URI, i.e.

header("Location: http://www.example.com/en/index.php");exit;

(use example.com - unless you own xxxx.com. That's what example.com,
..org, etc. are reserved for).

And it sounds like maybe you have a redirect on your system - maybe in
your .htaccess file?
