A television network in Pakistan has released photos showing a suspect aiming a gun at Pakistan People's Party leader, Benazir Bhutto. They were taken just moments before Bhutto was assassinated after a campaign rally in Rawalpindi on Thursday.

One of the pictures released by Dawn TV shows a suspected suicide bomber wearing white robes and a suspected gunman standing beside each other. They were in a crowd of Bhutto supporters. Al Qaeda-linked militants have denied being behind the killing of the 54-year-old former prime minister.

An Interior Ministry official said on Saturday that the rioting across the country has killed at least 38 people and caused tens of millions of US dollars in damage.
