In pictures: Bhutto laid to rest (BBC)
Edited on Fri Dec-28-07 09:46 PM by eppur_se_muova


The journey of Benazir to her grave began in a simple wooden coffin, carried out of a Rawalpindi hospital.



Benazir Bhutto's husband, Asif Ali Zardari (in white cap) and their son Bilawal (left) lower her coffin into its grave in the Bhutto family mausoleum in Sindh province.

(Muslim tradition requires burial before sundown the day of death, IIRC. So no, this is not an unusually hurried burial.)
