Oh my god, I first heard of her in summer when she was on Question Time and it's then when I started following the events in Pakistan. I still support President Pervez Musharraf though.
RIP, what a mess that country is going to be in now. I have a feeling there is going to be a civil war.
yeah i knew bout it recently and im like :O

It came quite a shock to me... Rip.
If only the assassin had put his time into call centres.
Well she was corrupted n stuff so it was kind of a good thing for the country imo. I saw it straight away on the news, like half an hour after she was killed.
What happened was she was shot in the neck and head (i think) then there was a suicide bombing which killing her party followers.
she was ignorant for staying in the country.
The second day she came back, 300 people died in a suicide attack ather march, it was inevitable she would be killed sooner or later
She was shot in the neck and chest after bending down, the killer then blew himself up taking out people around him.Quote:

From what I understand, she did a lot for democracy in Pakistan. But it was bound to happen after the events in October. Aparrently, she got shot when she was stood up with her head poking out of her sun roof in her bullet proof car.Quote:

When she stuck her head out of the rover she was in, she was shot in the neck. She knew there would be a chance of her getting killed, yet she took the risk in order to achieve her goal, full democracy in Pakistan. Three days of national mourning have been declared in Pakistan. A lot of international leaders have condemned this attack. It is a great loss for Pakistan.
Why did she bother spending so much money on bullet-proof cars and security guards, to then go stick her head out the sun roof? It just destroys the whole point of it, and it destroyed her in the end too.
All I want is a fair election in Pakistan and an end to violence, how? I don't care but all this will do is make Musharaff get shot since her supporters will now end up assassinate him probably, or at least attempt it. Like someone said, in the end it will turn into civil war, though it arguably already has. Bit of a shame what happened to her family, but I think the world needs to admire how brave she was to return to Pakistan after all these years (In exile I believe, in the UK). Rest in peace I guess? It just needs sorting out really.
I was in my cousins when this came on in the news and my Auntie was going mad explaining to us how she was a good women and wanted nothing but the best for Pakistan.

RIP, She was laid to rest today.
Why was she laid to rest 24hrs after?
Probably had no reason to not bury her. It gets it all out the way I suppose.Quote:
