UN panel to investigate Bhutto’s death

Pakistan and the United Nations have agreed in principle to set up a UN panel to investigate the killing of Pakistani ex-Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto.



Pakistan\'s foreign minister said UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon had agreed to his government\'s request for such an investigation.



A UN statement said a broad understanding had been reached, but further consultation would be required.



Ms. Bhutto was killed during a suicide attack on a rally last December.



Five people have been arrested in connection with the killing, but no one has been convicted.
