ST. GEORGE'S PALACE
OFFICE OF HIS MAJESTY THE KING
The House of Gagarin expresses it's shock and disgust at the political murder of Benazir Bhutto in Pakistan. This is surely a set back for the people of Pakistan and the world. While the House of Gagarin does not support all of the policy ideas of the late Benazir Bhutto, the fact that her opposition has resorted to violence cannot be supported by a civilized world and it is the sincere hope that those responsible are found and punished.
The Royal family extend their support and sympathy to the Bhutto family in this difficult time.
John Gribbin
Private Secretary To His Majesty The King
