" Getting Away With The Murder "

Behind The Assassination of ''BENAZIR BHUTTO''

ABDUL REHMANSEC. GRoll No: 71

"The Daughter of The EAST"

Benazir Bhutto (21 June 1953 – 27 December 2007) was from Pakistan.

She was twice the Prime Minister of the country.

First Lady to be the PM of a Muslim State.

Daughter of Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and Wife of Asif Ali Zardari.

She had 1 son and 2 daughters.

She was in self exile during the era of Military Dictator Gen Pervaiz Musharaf who took over the country in october 1999.

After 8 years of self exile, in 2007, Benazir Bhutto decided to come back to Pakistan for contesting 2008 General elections.

She decided her returning date to Pakistan and that was 18 October 2007.

Benazir at that time wanted a very warm welcome from the supporters.

On the very day, Benazir Bhutto's convoy was attacked but she fortunately survived the attack due to Bullet Proof Truck. 139 casualities.

After the attack, Benazir requested for full proof security but was not prvided by then Interior Minister.

THE DAY :

On December 27, Benazir was to address a public gathering for her election compaign at LIAQAT BAGH, RAWALPINDI.

Before that, she met DG(ISI) Gen Nadeem Taj And Afghan President Hamid Karzai.

At 2 pm, she left for Liaqat Bagh.After addressing a huge gathering there, everything seemed to be perfect but at the very moment something very disastrous happened.

As she left the liaqat bagh, she selected one of her 2 Land cruisors for the ride back to Zardari House.

Her convoy was surrounded by the mob as to show love and affection for their leader.

Suddenly there was a devastating Sound and everything just changed near LIAQAT BAGH.

That was a BOMB BLAST. A SUICIDE BLAST

Following the incident, an unconscious Bhutto was taken to the Rawalpindi General Hospital at 5:35 pm local time, where doctors led by Rawalpindi Medical College Principal Mohammad Musaddiq Khan tried to resuscitate her, performing a "left anterolateral thoracotomy" for open cardiac massage".

Sadiq Khan, Mussadiq Khan's father, had tried to save Liaquat Ali Khan when he was assassinated in the same park and rushed to the same hospital in 1951.

Although Pakistan Peoples Party spokesman Farhatullah Babar initially said that Bhutto was safe, she was declared dead at 6:16 pm local time

The City Police Officer (CPO) Rawalpindi, Saud Aziz was handling the case.

Despite of the insisting of Doctors again and again, CPO didn't let them permission for the postmortem.

He stated that

"How can i direct you for the postmortem unless the case is not filled back in the police station for Benazir's death"

The negligence of the police didn't stop here.

Soon after the declaration of the death, CPO ordered the washing of accident site with immediate effect. According to him, the road was very busy and city police can't manage that.

Government at that time, was trying to portrate the assassination of BB as an accident despite a suicide attack.

According to them, due to the sudden pressure created by bomb explosion, BB's head was forced towards lever of the car's sunroof that caused her death.

The Dilemma was that the nation was not trying to know who was killer but instead of that trying to know the cause of death for several weeks.

Now, it was a challenge for any investigation team to investigate about the assassination as:

* No AUTOPSY

* Site of the accident was washed right away after the death

However, an investigation team was formed and was commonly known as "JIT"

They started to investigate the case by help of every possible evidence that was left.

Besides this, Government seeked help from the United Nation Investigation Team and the Scotland Yard

The country's main Intelligence agency ISI was also involved in the investigation confidentially.

"The UN Investigation Team"

Investigation Team found out that it was unclear whether the death was from lever of car or by other means.

So to findout the exact cause, they took help from the videos and the cctv cameras etc.

They concluded something. The death was not due to the lever. Besides the suicide attack, there were 3 gunshots fired from which the 2nd one targeted Benazir's head.

Due to the velocity of fire, Benazir's head was forced to move towards the lever of car's sunroof.

After this fact, a shocking CT Scan of Benazir's head was leaked from Hospital authorities which sums it all.

Forensic Experts were in a view that the gunshot was fired from a 30 bore pistol. Velocity of which is 1km per sec and was fired from a range of 5 to 8 Feet

The bullet that killed Benazir Bhutto hasn't been found till date.

All these facts suggested that there was someone who was not feeling comfortable for the pure investigation and thats why facts were either vanishing or scrambled.

It is worth mentioning here that after the Assassination, a few days later, video tape of BAITULLAH MEHSUD was leaked in which he claimed that the responsibility of Benazir's death is on TTP. But

WHY???

"Some Important Revealings by JIT and other Investigations"

• The then Chief Security Officer of BB, Rehman Malik was saying till 6 pm that BB hasn't been harmed and will get well soon.

• While the Information Secretory of BB, Dr.Babar Awan keep on saying that BB has been hit by Lever and is in critical condition. Afterwards BB's death announcement was also made by Babar Awan.

Was there any Communication Gap between the 2

important members or there was something else?

Before coming back to Pakistan, Benazir Bhutto wrote a letter to Pervez Musharaf about the security threats and named 4 persons from whom BB had a serious concern.The letter has not been publicized yet.

WHY??

"Astonishing Facts about the Investigation"

• The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) public prosecutor "CH ZULFIQAR" was brutally killed when he was going to the hearing of Benazir's case.

• It was quite astonishing because 2 days before his murder he made a statement :

"I am not like other cowards. I will not let it go until the real murderers of BB are not hanged. I have enough evidences to present it in court who is behind this"

Revealings after Ch. Zulfiqar's Death

Khalid Sheikh Muhammad

Khalid Shehenshah :

Was mysteriously actioning towards someone when BB was on stage

Same fate. Was brutally Target killed in Karachi.

Qari Saif Ullah Akhter

Man accused by BB before coming back.Was arrested but released soon till date.

Revealings in UN Report and JIT Report about Qari Saifullah:

Had connections with Intelligence agencies, Osama bin Laden and BRIGADIER IJAZ SHAH

Was provided 2 men by Baitullah Mehsood, named BILAL BADAR and IKRAMULLAH

Conversation between Qari Saif and BaitUllah was revealed by Intelligence Agencies.

"Attackers"

Role of Gen. Pervez Musharaf:

• Under trial now a days due to reasons like

1. Security lapse inspite of BB letter and Karachi attack2. Orders to CPO Saud Aziz for washing accident site and a blame for

carrying out no autopsy

Musharaf wrote a letter to Benazir in which he stated

''You should understand something, your security is based on the state of our relationship. I would only be able to protect you if you will be nice to me''

Role of Asif Zardari:

• Didn't allowed autopsy

• Is in great power after her assassination

• Was not able to find fact and figures about the death inspite of 5 years own government

Some Conclusions:

• If Benazir would have stayed inside her bulletproof car, the scenario might have been different today.

• If accident site were not washed and Autopsy performed, it could have helped a lot in investigation

• Someone is there in the whole case which has a direct link to the assassination even though by the help of TTP.

Mausoleum

May Her Soul Rest In Peace...!!!
