ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) - Lawmakers from Pakistan's newly elected parliament have passed a resolution seeking a U.N. probe into the assassination of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, officials from her party said Tuesday.
The National Assembly, the lower house of Pakistan's parliament, unanimously adopted the resolution late Monday, said Izhar Amrohvi, secretary for parliamentary affairs for the Pakistan People's Party.
Bhutto died last December in a gun and suicide bombing attack as she was leaving a campaign rally in Rawalpindi. President Pervez Musharraf has blamed a Taliban militant leader, Baitullah Mehsud, for the attack.
