When Benazir Bhutto was killed, she did not bear any official national status except that the lady was the chair person of a political party and an ex-prime minister of a defunct government. Previously her government was ousted and she was de-crowned on very serious charges.
In 2007, while she was running a political campaign, she met a tragic end. Her death may be counted as tragic incident for her party that she was a candidate and expected to become the next elected prime minister; the route for which were adequately prepared by President Pervez Musharraf; but they say; yeh kahani khatum hoi, Aghaz say pehley hi. She was killed during her campaign in private and her death may not be counted as--- she had died on duty serving a national cause.
Who killed her and why she was killed— that is different story but—her death certainly won her party a sympathy vote and PPP had a cake walk to the seat of power.
But even after coming to the power and after a lapse of about three years her party--PPP owing to some unexplained reasons has not been able to launch a proper FIR neither her killers have been apprehended so for.
Her party-PPP may build Benazir monument in private but she does not deserve neither qualify for it that her official monument costing, tax payer some $11 million be built.
