Did Special Service kill Bhutto?
Sunday, December 30, 2007 11:26 [IST]

Islamabad: The Pakistan Peoples Party leadership has circulated an investigative report carried by The New York Sun, a well-known New York-based
newspaper, which has suspected the involvement of the Special Service Group (SSG) commandos of the Pakistan Army, the parent unit of President Musharraf, in the assassination of Bhutto.

The report forwarded to the DNA claims that "the American and the Pakistani military leaders are seeking to account for what may be renegade  commando units from the Special Services Group (SSG) of the Pakistan Army in the wake of the December 27 assassination of former Bhutto". The  report states that the attack at Rawalpindi bore the hallmarks of a sophisticated military operation.

According to a situation report of the incident relayed to The New York Sun by a senior merican intelligence officer, states the story, hutto's armoured lmousine was shot by multiple nipers whose armour-piercing bullets enetrated the vehicle, hitting the former premier five times in the head, chest, and neck. Two of the snipers then detonated themselves shortly after the shooting.

The report states another attack was thwarted at the local hospital where Bhutto possibly would have been revived had she survived the initial shooting. A working theory, according to the American source, is that Al-Qaeda or affiliated jihadist groups had effectively suborned at least one
unit of Pakistan's Special Services Group. Other theories include that the assassins were trained by Al-Qaeda or were from other military services,
or the possibility that the assassins were retired Pakistani special forces.
