About 50 police officers were assigned to guard opposition leader Benazir Bhutto in Pakistan, one day after a former army officer stormed a house in Lahore demanding to see her. Bhutto, touring the countryside to drum up support for new elections after her return from exile Thursday, told supporters that the break-in was a “murderous attack.” However, a spokesman for the provincial government denied it was a murder attempt, saying the man appeared deranged and was unarmed. Bhutto was not in the house at the time.
