Breaking News - United Nations Releases Benazir Murder Report

 

[Adeel]

Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto has held General(R) Pervez Musharraf's government responsible for the killings of former premier Benazir Bhutto.

the report further suggest that her personal security provided by PPP was inadequate from preventing the tragedy to take place.

I do not find anything new in this report.

She was murdered due to inadequate security....hmm ok..What's new about that?Was she given inadequate security on purpose by Musharaf and PPP? That is the real question.

Also Moeed Peerzada suggests "that Report has no legal value". Why the hell Zardari paid U.N so much money to investigate If it has no value.

There will be a lot of questions raised in coming days.

 

[gazoomartian]

I am no fan of Mush but seems like Zardari spent millions from baitul maal to exonerate himself. Who doesn't know that security screwed up. If you read closely, the report blames both, Mush and PPP w/o any concrete blame on the actually person. Did we really need to spend millions on this investigation? What a waste. Now Zardari is gong soon to claim to be a masoom, victime, and bechara whose wife was killed.....

 

[Ussi1]

they blame it on Musharraf's Government- latest news

yet to officialy release yet

* the main point was not to find the specific individual or group who killed her
but the facts which they have covered in their process

waste of time i think

So you were really expecting that they will come out with the real name in this report?

 

[Nawazish]

How could they blame on Mush's govt - as he was already warning her not to come to Pakistan because of imminent life threats to her life .

I think the main culprit in all of this is her own husband. Apart from her dad mostly they were killed by their own family members. ;)

 

[lahori]

Zardari has PhD in corruption.

Lets get thsi stragith, report was supposed to come out two weeks ago

Zardari asked for a delay

Someone should check the bank balances of these UN inspectors for the last two weeks

Pakistan failed to protect Bhutto, probe death: U.N.


UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - Pakistan failed to properly protect former prime minister Benazir Bhutto or investigate her December 2007 assassination, and it also hampered a United Nations inquiry, U.N. investigators reported on Thursday.



The 65-page report said that the inquiry commission believes the failure by Pakistani authorities to effectively investigate Bhutto's death was "deliberate." It added that the U.N. probe was "severely hampered" by intelligence agencies and government officials.
Bhutto was killed in a gun and suicide bomb attack after an election rally in the city of Rawalpindi on December 27, 2007, weeks after she returned from eight years in self-imposed exile.
"While she died when a 15-and-a-half-year-old suicide bomber detonated his explosives near her vehicle, no one believes that this boy acted alone," the report said.

"The commission was mystified by the efforts of certain high-ranking Pakistani government authorities to obstruct access to military and intelligence sources," it added.
The report said that the country's president at the time of the assassination, General Pervez Musharraf, was aware of and tracking the many threats against Bhutto.
But Musharraf's government "did little more than pass on those threats to her and to provincial authorities and were not proactive in neutralizing them or ensuring that the security provided was commensurate to the threats," it said.

Aakhir wohi nikla :(

 

[GeoG]

OK, Time now to start proceedings on FIR lodged in Pakistan and question Musharraf et al and PPP security personnel.
Dig the grave of Khalid Shehansha, Pakistani Police can make him talk and he will Zardari Zardari Zardari .....

 

[hassanpak]

Right. Nothing special. Just waste of time and money of poor Pakistani peoples. Not even on this case but I think also give to UN to take out Zardaris name from this report.

Zardari! Peoples of Paksitan are not sleeping and no more uneducated.

 

[Siasati]

they worked on it for 9 1/2 months and had a 60 pages long report.

completely agree with it being a waste of time and resources as the findings were utterly useless.

Since the day she was killed, i have suspected Zardari's hand behind the assassination. Wouldn't be surprised if it is discovered after like 10 years.

 

[imemyself89]

All parties involved can take some comfort as the Report does not put any blame directly on Musharraf, Zardari, Army, Babar Awan, Rehman Malik or Talibaan. It simlply says that Musharraf Govt did not provide adequate security arrangement and why was the incident spot washed away next day and why Zardari took so long to order the inquiry through UNO.
Sheer waste of Public Money. Time to concentrate on real issues.

 

[Abdul_ghaffar]

Aik aam Pakistani ko yeh sab kuch pehley he maloom tha. UN nain konsa teer mara hey. Han Zardari ko Mr. Clean ka khatab dey dia. Waste of money.

سکیورٹی ناکافی تھی، رپورٹ میں مشرف حکومت پر الزام

جاوید سومرو

بی بی سی اردو ڈاٹ کام، نیو یارک

پاکستان کی سابقِ وزیراعظم بینظیر بھٹو کے قتل کی تحقیقات کرنے والے اقوامِ متحدہ کے کمیشن کی رپورٹ میں کہا گیا ہے کہ سابق صدر پرویز مشرف کی حکومت بینظیر بھٹو کو مناسب سکیورٹی مہیا کرنے میں ناکام رہی تھی۔
فائل فوٹو

بینظیر بھٹو کو راولپنڈی کے لیاقت باغ کے باہر خود کش حملے میں ہلا ک کر دیا گیا تھا

باون صفحات پر مشتمل اقوام متحدہ کے سیکریٹری جنرل بان کی مون کو پیش کی جانے والی رپورٹ میں کہا گیا پیپلز پارٹی کے مزید سکیورٹی مہیا کرنے کے مطالبات کو بار بار نظر انداز کیا گیا۔ تاہم رپورٹ میں یہ بھی کہا گیا کہ پیپلز پارٹی کی طرف سے اپنی رہنما کے لیے کیے گئے انتظامات بھی ناکافی تھے۔

کمیشن کے سربراہ چلی کے سفارت کار ہیرالڈو مونوز نے بعد اقوامِ متحدہ میں پریس کانفرنس سے خطاب کرتے ہوئے بتایا کہ مشرف دور کی وفاقی حکومت، پنجاب حکومت، انٹیلیجنس ایجنسیاں بینظیر بھٹو کو مناسب سکیورٹی کرنے میں ناکام رہیں اور اس طرح کے سکیورٹی کے انتظامات نہیں کیے گئے جس طرح کے انتظامات کی ضرورت تھی۔

رپورٹ میں کہا گیا ہے کہ بم دھماکے کے بعد مناسب تحقیقات نہیں کی گئیں۔ رپورٹ میں کہا گیا کہ جائے حادثہ سے صرف تیئس شواہد اکھٹے کیے گئے اور اسے دھو دیا گیا حالانکہ وہاں سے ہزاروں شواہد مل سکتے تھے۔ رپورٹ کے مطابق ایسا کرنا اعلیٰ سطحی احکامات کے بغیر ممکن نہیں ہے۔

رپورٹ میں یہ بھی کہا گیا کہ ایسے کوئی شواہد نہیں ملے کہ کہا جائے کہ صدر آصف زرداری یا ان کے خاندان کا کوئی فرد اس واقعے میں ملوث ہو سکتا ہے۔

اس سے قبل اقوامِ متحدہ کے صدر دفتر میں صحافی اس وقت ششدر رہ گئے جب اقوامِ متحدہ میں پاکستان کے مستقل نمائندے حسین ہارون نے رپورٹ کے متعلق کچھ بھی کہنے سے یہ کہہ کر انکار کر دیا کہ وہ رپورٹ پاکستان حکومت کو بھیج رہے ہیں اور حکومت ہی اس پر ردِ عمل دے گی۔

یہ رپورٹ یکم اپریل کو پیش کی جانی تھی لیکن پاکستان کے صدر آصف علی زرداری کی درخواست اسے پندرہ دن کے لیے مؤخر کر دیا گیا تھا۔

 

[Mumtaz]

This report is only pointing out the obvious They found nothing new!

1. Benazir got killed obvioulsy there was a security lapse.

2. No proper investigation afterwards.

This is a joke. PPP government waited on this?? bacha bacha knew these basic facts.

This is just absurd. PPP is not even committed to a criminal investigation.

What about the 140 who she got killed celebrating her return???

 

[scary]

Aik aam Pakistani ko yeh sab kuch pehley he maloom tha. UN nain konsa teer mara hey. Han Zardari ko Mr. Clean ka khatab dey dia. Waste of money.

This report is slap on the face of the past and present government. It puts the whole blame on Musharraf and his government and of course Zardari and his government. These two “morons” did not pursue the very basic steps as head of a civilised government. These were first to provide adequate security to an important political figure and then when she was assassinated no one bothered to conduct an investigation. Even if you image that Musharraf was brain dead to think about investigation, what about Zardari. As head of the state leave alone as husband of the victim, to date, he has not carry out an investigation.

I guess you could say that there mental capacity would be that of a monkey. But then I am insulting monkeys. We have wasted this money which we could have used to build a hospital or a university or even a power plant. Only to discover our own incompetence’s. The sad part of this whole exercise is that once again the name of Pakistan is put to shame because our leaders our corrupt, uneducated, unintelligent, inexperienced thugs.

Now listen to this dog Faratullah Babar defending his father who himself is a SOB

 

[Masood75]

Musharaf was trying to arrange a party?

This report whether correct or not, will finish the political career of Musharraf, and ofcourse the Q Leage.

Very unprofessional report Zardari spent millions to find out nothing.Report was dictated by PPP and spent extra millions privately to un inspectors.BB was told about security threats yet she ignored that although she was provided security of PM or president she was overconfident because some pir gave her Taveez and told her nobody will kill her.Naheed Khan and AminFahim did not stop her to come of vehicle to wave to jilialas.The sunroof they call was actually emergency exit but if somebody was to commit suicide nobody can stop him or her
