ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (CNN) — Benazir Bhutto died as a result of a fractured skull after hitting her head on part of her car’s sun roof, not as a result of a bullet or bomb shrapnel, a spokesman for Pakistan’s Interior Ministry said Friday.

Asif Ali Zardari, in white cap on left, helps carry the coffin of his wife Benazir Bhutto during Friday’s burial.

At a news conference, Cheema showed images of Bhutto in a car, standing up through an open sunroof, looking out at the crowd as she was about to be driven away.

When the gunshots rang out and the explosion occurred, Bhutto “fell down or perhaps ducked” and apparently hit her head on a lever, Cheema said, adding that the lever was stained with blood. Watch how investigators think Bhutto died »

The article that I saw said that as she was ducking back into the car her head was knocked into the lever by the shock wave of the explosion. I don't see any reason why that would be implausible, although I am a little surprised that they said that she wasn't hit by any shrapnel. However if her head was at the level of the roof of the car at the time of the explosion, she may well have been protected from shrapnel by the edge of the roof (the bomber was on a motorcycle and would be below the roof line).

I'm not quite sure I see why the precise location of the deadly wound matters at this point.
