The federal government wants to make public the investigation, finalized by the Joint Investigation Team (JIT) in the Benazir murder case on her fifth death anniversary to be observed on December 27.Special Judge ATC Rawalpindi Ch Habib-ur-Rehman Wednesday disposed of an FIA application seeking permission to make public the probe findings. During the proceedings, the judge observed that the government did not need any court permission for this. However, the court directed the prosecution to take all actions in accordance with the law.According to political pundits, the PPP government’s idea of making public the probe findings could be an attempt to cover its failure in nabbing the killers of Benazir. and a tactic to avoid a series of public queries its candidates might face during electioneering.It is pertinent to mention here that Benazir was killed in a gun-and-bomb attack outside Liaquat Bagh soon after she culminated her address to a mammoth public rally on December 27, 2007.
