Senate chairperson Raza Rabbani on Sunday claimed that Pakistan Peoples Party founder Zulfikar Ali Bhutto was murdered under a conspiracy.

Speaking to the media in Garhi Khuda Bakhsh, Rabbani alleged that many western countries conspired against Bhutto as Pakistan becoming a nuclear power did not go down well with them.

He said that Bhutto had started the country's nuclear programme.

Geo News quoted Rabbani as saying that the proof of Bhutto's murder had surfaced.

"There is a reference [regarding the murder] in Supreme Court but it has been lying untouched," the Senate chairperson said, adding the Supreme Court must make a decision on the reference by taking suo motto notice.

Rabbani further said that no politician can even today accuse Bhutto of indulging in corruption.
