Aseefa Bhutto Zardari, who is schooling in Scotland, revealed her feelings in a message on Twitter this morning: “Dec 27, 2010. It feels like just yesterday was 2007.”
Aseefa, who is Pakistan’s polio ambassador, was 15 when Benazir was killed by a suicide bomber after addressing a rally in the garrison city of Rawalpindi. In an earlier tweet, she wrote: “Ya Allah Ya Rasool Benazir Bay Qasoor! (Oh God! Benazir is innocent!).” She and her elder sister Bakhtawar miss their mother tremendously and are keeping her memory alive in the virtual world by tweeting about her often.
