In his message issued on 26th Martyrdom Day of Shaheed Mir Murtaza Bhutto, Bilawal said that brutal killing of Shaheed Mir Murtaza Bhutto was a conspiracy aimed at to ‘kill a Bhutto to get another Bhutto’. “Sacrifices made by Bhutto family for sake of democracy are unmatched in modern history,” he added.

He said that perpetrators of atrocities on Bhutto family have not received anything other than disgrace and infamy in history. Shaheed Mir Murtaza Bhutto’s determination, courage and democratic struggle are a beacon for every political worker.
