Islamabad, March 31: Fatima Bhutto, the outspoken niece of slain former Pakistani premier Benazir Bhutto, says her tell-all tome on the Bhutto dynasty will “frighten” those in power in the country.
Fatima had the first launch of ‘Songs of Blood and Sword: A Daughter’s Memoir’ at Clifton Gardens at the exact spot in the port city of Karachi where her father Mir Murtaza Bhutto was killed nearly 14 years ago.
Without taking the name of her aunt Benazir’s widower President Asif Ali Zardari, Fatima said the man who orchestrated the killing of her father is currently leading the nation.
“The streetlights went off and roads leading to 70 Clifton were blocked by heavy contingents of police who were waiting to kill my father,” she said describing the scene of her father’s death.
Fatima, the granddaughter of late premier Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, said her book will “frighten” those in power.
