U.S. says Scotland Yard report on Benazir Bhutto ”credible”

 The United States has termed as “credible” the Scotland Yard’s findings that former Pakistan Premier Benazir Bhutto died due to the impact of a suicide bomb and not from a gunshot saying it has no reason to question the validity of assessment made by British sleuths. We view this as a credible investigation by independent, outside experts, state department deputy spokesman Tom Casey told reporters here. Casey said it was important for people to feel that they have a clear understanding of what happened. We aren’t proposing anything particular, and I think it would be up to Pakistanis to decide whether they felt they needed more review or investigation of this beyond what Scotland Yard and Pakistani authorities have already done. Asked to comment on President Pervez Musharraf having negotiations with local Taliban in tribal areas, Casey said: We’ve been working very well with government of Pakistan on these issues, but we certainly wouldn’t want to see any kind of agreements made that would provide an opportunity for militants to either re-arm or otherwise continue to engage in cross-border activities or do anything else that would undermine our common goals. As far as I know, there’s a lot of discussion out there, but I still don’t believe we’ve been told that there is a specific proposal being pursued by government of Pakistan on this.
