Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) chairperson Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and co-chairperson Asif Ali Zardari paid tribute on Saturday to the PPP workers who lost their lives in 2007 Karsaz bombings.
Bilawal recalled that around 180 people were killed in the incident and more than 500 injured from a massive gathering that had come out on the roads to welcome late premier Benazir Bhutto upon her return to Pakistan.
In his message on the eve of the bombings’ 13th anniversary, he said, “My party’s workers embraced martyrdom for the restoration of democracy, supremacy of the Constitution and parliament and protection of human rights. This struggle will continue despite… terrorist attacks, fabricated cases, arbitrary cases and [us] receiving threats by the puppet, selected prime minister.”
He said that “all democratic political parties” would gather in Karachi on Sunday to pay tribute to the victims of Karsaz bombings.
Besides, he said, the PDM was an alliance of “all democratic political parties to rid [the country] of the evil destroying democracy, the economy and foreign policy.”
Separately, Zardari too paid tribute to the Karsaz bombing victims, saying that those who lost their lives in the incident had “sacrificed their lives for the Constitution, an empowered parliament and democracy.”
“They have penned down a golden chapter in the political history of the world,” he remarked.
He said such workers were the legacy of the PPP, who had laid down their lives to save that of their leader Benazir.
