LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) chief Mian Nawaz Sharif said rafts of questions regarding the murder of Benazir Bhutto are left unanswered, Geo News reported Saturday. Talking to media, he said the question why the place of BB’s murder was washed out hurriedly, is still unsatisfied. Commenting on Hazara situation, he said the elements of vested interests fueled the fire in Hazara and burnished their image at the cost of Pakistan, adding his party conceded to the Awami National Party (ANP) in the larger national interest. ‘If my politics is put at stake, I do not mind; but, the country should remain intact,’ he said.
