A Pakistani TV news channel late Saturday night aired photographs of two men it said were involved in the assassination of former premier Benazir Bhutto after an election rally in Rawalpindi on Thursday.
One of the two grainy photos -- which the Dawn News channel said were clicked by an amateur photographer -- showed a youth wearing sunglasses aiming a pistol at Bhutto's back while she waved through the sun-roof of her bulletproof vehicle to her supporters.
The other picture, apparently taken before the shooting, showed the same young man standing next to another man who had a white cloth wrapped around his face.
The Dawn News described the second man as the "suspected suicide bomber".
The position of the young man with the pistol in the photo coincided with the position of the shooter seen in video footage of the attack on Bhutto released by the interior ministry.
In that footage, the face of the shooter is obscured but his hand can be seen holding a pistol that was used to fire three to four shots at Bhutto.
