Pakistan’s former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto was assassinated Thursday outside a large gathering of her supporters where a suicide bomber also killed at least 14 others.Police said a suicide bomber fired at Bhutto as she was leaving the rally venue in a park before blowing himself up.
Following the blast, body parts and flesh were strewn across Liaqat Bagh park where Bhutto had spoken. The attack came just hours after four supporters of former Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif died when members of another political party opened fire on them at a rally near the Islamabad airport Thursday. The planned General Election scheduled to be held on the 8th of January will most likely be postponed.
