Looks to me like she was struck twice, once in the head and once lower, perhaps on the neck or shoulder. IMO, it's senseless and weird that the government doesn't just disclose this. What's the difference if she was assassinated by a bullet, a bomb blast, or a fractured skull. She was as assassinated nonetheless.

In addition, with an accomplice, the attack was obviously conspiracy and not the work of a lone crazy. Given a conspiracy, I'm sure the gunman who was chosen had had A LOT of practice. Three taps from ten feet away would easily result in two head shots, again IMHO.

Agreed. That's why I find all this so puzzling. Why should he try to impose some kind of cock and bull story if she was shot and everyone saw her being shot? It only stirs the pot and increases anger and suspicion with the government. And for what?

Musharref would lie in a minute if there was a good reason to. But I don't think he's stupid enough to lie on a misguided impulse.

Question ... was the gunman killed when the bomb went off ... or did he get away?

I haven't seen anywhere on whether that's been reported or not
