Reggie Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 Shot in the neck and blown up. PAKISTAN opposition leader Benazir Bhutto was assasinated as she left a public rally today, threatening to plunge Pakistan into a civil war.Benazir BhuttoBenazir BhuttoMs Bhutto, twice the country's prime minister, was shot in the neck and body by a suicide bomber who then blew themselves up as she was driven from the rally in the city of Rawalpindi.A senior military official confirmed that Ms Bhutto had died in the explosion that also killed at least another 20 people.She had just addressed thousands of people in a public park as part of her campaign for the country's parliamentary elections which are due on January 8.Her death threw the election campaign into chaos and created fears of mass protests and an eruption of violence across the country.Its confirmation came from party member Wasif Ali Khan who was at Rawalpindi's General Hospital."At 6:16 p.m. she expired," he said. Her lawyer added: Her lawyer said, "The surgeons confirmed that she has been martyred."Nawaz Sharif, another former premier and opposition leader, arrived at the hospital and sat silently next to Ms Bhutto's body.Her security adviser Rehman Malik said she was shot in the neck and chest."We repeatedly informed the government to provide her proper security and appropriate equipment including jammers (devices to foil remote-control detonation of bombs), but they paid no heed to our requests," he said.As her death was made public supporters at the hospital began chanting "Dog, Musharraf, dog," referring to Pakistan's president, Pervez Musharraf.Some of them smashed the glass door at the main entrance of the emergency unit, others burst into tears.Ms Bhutto ,54, served twice as Pakistan's prime minister between 1988 and 1996. She had returned to Pakistan from an eight-year exile last October after agreeing an amnesty deal with President Musharraf over corruption charges.Her homecoming parade in Karachi was also targeted by a suicide attacker, killing more than 140 people. On that occasion she narrowly escaped injury.America was first to react internationally to the killing with a State Department spokesman condemning it and warning: "It demonstrates that there are still those in Pakistan who want to subvert reconciliation and efforts to advance democracy."President Musharraf convened an emergency meeting with his senior staff to discuss whether to postpone the election, an official at the Interior Ministry said.Next to Mr Musharraf, Ms Bhutto was the best known political figure in the country, serving two terms as prime minister between 1988 and 1996.She was respected in the West for her liberal outlook and determination to combat the spread of Islamic extremism, a theme she returned to often in her campaign speeches.Meanwhile Mr Sharif also questioned whether to hold the elections."I think perhaps none of us is inclined to think of the elections," he said. "We would have to sit down and take a very serious look at the current situation together with the People's Party and see what we have to do in the coming days." lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
