Pakistan People's Party Secretary General Jahangir Badar has said that a United Nations commission will start a probe into former prime minister Benazir Bhutto's murder in January next year, a private TV channel reported on Sunday. They'll get around to it eventually, I guess. Neither the govt nor the UN seems particularly concerned. It's just a dead politician, after all.
According to the channel, Badar said the PPP would provide all evidence to the UN commission to help with the probe. Meanwhile, presidential spokesman Farhatullah Babar said the government wanted the UN to probe Benazir's assassination, APP reported. Babar said, "We requested the UN to constitute an investigation commission so that the people who were behind the tragedy could be exposed," adding the announcement regarding the commission's formation was a good omen.
