A supporter of slain former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto is overcome with grief after a suicide bomber set off his charge in an assassination attack that killed Bhutto and many of her supporters December 27, 2007 in Rawalpindi, Pakistan. The opposition leader’s death sparked days of nationwide rioting, left the country in a state of shock and cast serious doubts on the possibility of democracy in Pakistan.
