British investigation squad arrives in Pakistan for Bhutto probe

Islamabad (ANTARA News) - A five-man team from Britain`s Scotland Yard
arrived in Pakistan in Friday to take part in the probe into the
assassination of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto outside a park in
Rawalpindi on Dec. 27, officials said.

They said the team would be briefed in Islamabad on the investigation so far by Pakistan`s Federal Investigation Agency.

The investigators from the antiterrorism squad at Scotland Yard will stay in Pakistan "as long as necessary," they said.

Bhutto was assassinated in a gun and suicide bomber attack outside
Liaqat Park in Rawalpindi. An Interior Ministry spokesman has said she
died as a result of a head injury from a lever of the sunroof in her
bullet-proof car, Kyodo News reported.
