Benazir Bhutto almost gets incinerated, 136 of her supporters killed, scores wounded, and who does Pakistan’s government put on the case? The fox tending the chicken coop:

The detective leading the inquiry into Thursday’s suicide attack on Pakistani opposition leader Benazir Bhutto has been taken off the case, officials say.

Ms Bhutto’s supporters had complained that Manzur Mughal was present when her husband, Asif Zardari, was allegedly tortured by police eight years ago.

Sindh government officials say that Mr Mughal has now “disassociated himself” from the investigation. …

Uh, huh… Just like the BBC blamed Bhutto for antagonizing the poor terrorists…
