LARKANA: April 15, 2009. (Nazir Siyal for PCP) Sanam Bhutto the daughter of Ex-premier and PPP founder Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and younger sister of martyr Benazir Bhutto refused to comment on political situation and once again denied her participation in the politics “I’m a private person. People here bring politics into everything. Everything is politicised.” She said in a press conference held here at the Naudero House on Wednesday. She denied any involvement in the political activities and declared that no any differences with her brother-in-law the President Asif Ali Zardari, while Zulfikar Ali Bhutto’s last remaining child also lashed out at PPP-SB leader Ghinwa Bhutto for allegedly grabbing her ancestral lands in Naudero Larkana she said. She said that Sindh National Front Chief Mumtaz Ali Bhutto is not any chieftain of Bhutto community and also did not escape her wrath, as the soft-spoken but direct Ms Bhutto said he had no business raising a hue and cry over her sister Benazir’s death. She said now owing properties or claims about the registering FIR, where he was during the eight year exilation and assassination of Benazir Bhutto. Sanam Bhutto, accompanied by Sindh Information Minister Shazia Marri, who also chose to take, questions straight off the bat instead of making a statement. “I have been coming here all my life. I’ve decided to live in self-imposed exile for whatever reasons,” Sanam Bhutto told the packed press conference when asked what the reason for her visit was. “I have got these lands, nothing else in Pakistan . I’m drawn here whether I like it or not she replied. (They) remind me of my father and my lineage. I m not here to take anything from anyone,” she added. “My sister is dead. I only care about my sister,” she said starkly. She told the media that as the manager of her lands had not been taking care of her property, she had decided to look into the matter herself. When the media insisted on her naming the people who, according to her, had taken over her family land, Sanam Bhutto named Ghinva Bhutto without hesitation. When asked if she kept the lines of communication open with her slain brother Murtaza’s children, she said “they don’t talk to me.” Her strongest reaction was reserved for reports in the press that have surfaced about her alleged differences with Asif Zardari. “You can’t make up lies. I don’t want to be involved in this muck. These are filthy, dirty people” trying to create differences between me and my brother-in-law, said Ms Bhutto. Though refusing to comment on the political situation, she did let a comment slip through as her guard dropped for a second. “It’s not the democratic governments that mess things up. It is the governments before them.” Referring to Mumtaz Bhutto’s repeated demands to bring Benazir Bhutto’s killers to justice, Sanam Bhutto asked where the SNF chief was when her sister was suffering after ZAB’s death. “Where was he when my mother and sister were in Sihala Jail? He abused my sister, now he wants to use her.” Shazia Marri said Sanam Bhutto held the press conference in order to prevent “conspiracies” from springing up if unanswered questions remained. _____Sindh Information Minister Shazia Marri said that the media plays an important role in the society, the positive role of print and electric media is a commendable for the society development.
