The Assassination

Benazir Bhutto
1953 - 2007

One of Pakistan's most famous and enduring politicians Benazir Bhutto was killed 27 December at a campaign rally in Rawalpindi. Bhutto who had returned from political exile to run in Pakistan's General Election, was waving to supporters from a vehicle when she was shot by an attacker who then blew himself up.

Ms Bhutto is being buried in Pakistan's southern Sindh province in the family's ancestral village of Garhi Khuda Bakhsh near the tomb of her father, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, Pakistan's first popularly elected leader.
