Bhutto tried to leave her compound in Islamabad 35 minutes ago to Rawalpindi but the police didn’t allow her to, she then made her way into her white SUV with a loudspeaker, her supporters surrounded her land cruiser and have broken through lines of police cordons. She was supposed to deliver her speech to the peace rally in Rawalpindi but has been unable to make it since the government has stated that they are preventing her from reaching the rally for her own safety after the Pakistani Federal Minister’s house was targeted in a bomb blast a few minutes ago. The minister – Ameer Muqat wasn’t at home at the time. And HRCP sends in an email informing us that their website is now back online.
