Benazir Bhutto is Dead, Assassinated

This is tragic news. Benazir Bhutto’s death reminds me on how a similar situation might happen in the Philippines. I first heard of her death in Twitter. Soon , other news reports came out all over the world.

From CNN

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, doctors and a spokesman for her party said.

President Pervez Musharraf held an emergency meeting in the hours after the death, according to state media.

Police warned citizens to stay home as they expected rioting to break out in city streets in reaction to the death.

Police sources told CNN the bomber, who was riding a motorcycle, blew himself up near Bhutto’s vehicle

While Bhutto appeared to have died from bullet wounds, it was not immediately clear if she was shot or if her wounds were caused by bomb shrapnel.

With her death, confusion is sure to ensue and will bring Pakistan in a worse situation.
