 UAE gives UN $0.5m for Benazir murder probe
Saturday, July 04, 2009
By our correspondent

ISLAMABAD: The United Arab Emirates has announced a contribution of US$500,000 to the UN Trust Fund for Benazir Bhutto Inquiry Commission.

Spokesperson for the president Farhatullah Babar said the UAE Embassy in Islamabad had informed Pakistan’s Foreign Office, conveying the decision of the UAE government. The commission is led by Chile’s UN ambassador and includes a former Indonesian attorney general and Ireland’s former deputy police commissioner as members.

The spokesperson said the commission’s mandate is to “inquire into the facts and circumstances” of Benazir Bhutto’s assassination. He said the commission was expected to arrive in Islamabad in mid-July and complete its work within six months. The commission will submit report to the UN secretary general.
