This is from the Guardian today:
“But Bhutto thinks ruling party chief Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain and a head of a spy agency - both close associates of Musharraf - could be behind the attack. She has given no evidence in public to back up her claim.
Hussain, in an apparently sarcastic swipe at Bhutto, said Monday that her husband, working with Bhutto and other party leaders, arranged the blasts to stir up public sympathy. The proof: Bhutto went into her armored vehicle minutes before the bombs exploded and was not hurt.
Although his tone appeared to be tongue-in-cheek, such accusations often gain traction in Pakistan, where conspiracy theories thrive in its violent, intrigue-filled politics.”
Hussain’s father was killed in 1981 - allegedly by a militant group run by one of Bhutto’s late brothers.

At least it will interesting weeks ahead.
When the truck started to move the first bomber threw a grenade in order to scatter the crowd and open a path for the main bomber to get close.
The grenades didn't have the intended effect and the main bomber got as close as he could and detonated. The crowd took most of the blast, minimal damage to the truck except for one killed on top of the truck.
The truck had secretly been seriously armored and Bhutto was quite safe.
Bhutto knew that any attack would benefit her and her alone, no other way to gain that much power so early on.
