Another video of Bhutto assassination surfaces

It would appear to lend credibility to claims by her supporters who suggest she was shot before the explosion happened. The government maintains that she was killed when she hit her head against the sunroof as a result of the blast.

The video comes to light as a Scotland Yard team is preparing to travel to Pakistan to help with the probe into her assassination.

Prime Minister Gordon Brown agreed to send the “technical experts” following a request from President Pe rvez Musharraf.

A Scotland Yard spokesman said: “We can confirm that at the request of the Pakistan government a small team of officers from the Met Counter Terrorism Command will be travelling to Pakistan. The officers will travel as soon as possible. The Pakistan authorities continue to lead the investigation into Benazir Bhutto’s death.”

Meanwhile, Pakistan is bracing itself for violence after it was decided to postpone elections scheduled for the weekend in the wake of the former prime minister’s murder.

So far on the streets of Larkana in her home province of Sindh the situation remains calm.

Opposition parties, including Bhutto’s own Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), believe the postponement of elections will not help their cause and deny them the chance of victory against President Pervez Musharraf.

Bhutto’s party would expect to reap a considerable sympathy vote following her assassination in a gun and bomb attack as she left a rally in Rawalpindi a week ago.
