LAHORE, Feb 14: The Punjab government on Thursday constituted a three-member committee for a probe into the issue of the washing out of the site where PPP chairperson Benazir Bhutto was assassinated on Dec 27. The committee will ‘particularly’ find out who had ordered the washing out of the crime scene.

Official sources told Dawn that Punjab Law Secretary Shaikh Ahmed Farooq would head the committee and Additional Home Secretary Nabil Javed and DIG Headquarters Ria Altaf would be its members.

The committee has been asked to finalise its findings by Saturday.

The sources said the British investigators in their report had raised questions about clearing the crime scene before collecting some important evidence.
