A team of Scotland Yard investigators arrived in Pak to assist in the inquiry of Bhutto's assassination. On Thursday, Musharraf told a news conference that he was 'not fully satisfied' with the investigation done so far. PPP has criticised govt inquiry as woefully inadequate.
It is for the third time that British police expertise has been sought by Pakistan to investigate a high-profile political assassination in the country. In last two instances, the British teams were asked to leave Pakistan before their completed their probe.
The first inquiry was conducted in the aftermath of the 1951 assassination of Pakistan's first PM Liaquat Ali Khan, who was incidentally shot at the same site as Bhutto. The British team was asked to leave Pakistan before its inquiries were complete and the case was closed. A second British police team was sent to Karachi in 1996 to investigate the murder of Bhutto's estranged younger brother and political rival, Murtaza.
