ISLAMABAD: Paying tributes to Mir Murtaz Bhutto on his death
anniversary falling on Tuesday September 20, President PPP Asif Ali
Zardari said he will be remembered for refusing to give up opposition
to dictatorship.
According to a press release, President and
Co-Chairman of the Pakistan People’s Party Asif Ali Zardari said that
Mir Murtaza endured the agony and uncertainty of exile and the
assassination of his brother and father that would have crippled many
but Murtaza endured it with courage and fortitude. He was gunned down
on this day in 1996.
Mir Murtaza Bhutto would be remembered for
dedicating his life to fighting against dictatorship, the President
said. Many people believe that Mir Murtaza’s murder was part of a
conspiracy to overthrow the PPP government.
“The killers of Mir
Murtaza would not escape punishment and they would be exposed and
punished as the wheels of justice not only grind invisibly but it
grinds exceeding small”. The President also prayed for the soul of Mir
Murtaza and those killed with him. May Allah grant patience to their
heirs to bear this heavy loss, he said. Online
