Of the many reasons Pervez Musharaff would have had to not want Benazir Bhutto alive, a glaring motive has come to light. CNN.com reports that their sources say the former Prime Minister was in possession of a vote-rigging report which she was about to hand over to US lawmakers.

Isambard Wilkinson of The Telegraph writes that Bhutto ignored security warnings. In the article a US State Department official commented:

"She knew people were trying to assassinate her. We don't hold information back on possible attacks on foreign leaders and foreign countries.

"We discussed those concerns regularly both with her and officials from her party and with President Musharraf and his government.

"In every instance, we always took those concerns seriously. We were very active in trying to ensure that any information we had that was relevant to her situation was passed on to her as well as those responsible for her security."
