巴基斯坦调查贝.布托遇刺案的检察官遭枪杀

Police in Pakistan say the lead prosecutor investigating the murder of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto, and the 2008 bombing attacks in Mumbai, India, has been shot dead in Islamabad.

Chaudry Zulfikar was shot multiple times Friday by attackers on a motorbike. His bodyguard was wounded and a passer-by was killed when his car hit her. Zulfikar's attackers fled.

Zulfikar was investigating the December 2007 killing of Ms. Bhutto, which took place in Rawalpindi just weeks after she returned to the country from self-imposed exile. No one has been convicted or sent to prison for her death. Police said he was headed to a hearing related to the Bhutto attack when he was killed.

Former military ruler Pervez Musharraf is accused in the Bhutto case.

Zulfikar was also investigating the Mumbai attacks, in which 166 people were killed. India blames the radical Pakistani Islamic group Lashkar-e-Taiba for the attacks.

A U.N. report in 2010 said any credible investigation of Ms. Bhutto's death should not rule out the possibility that members of Pakistan's military and security establishment were involved.
