Two explosions went off tonight night near a truck carrying former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto on her celebratory return to Pakistan after eight years in exile.

Police say two blasts have struck near a vehicle carrying Benazir Bhutto, and several people are injured.

Former prime minister Benazir Bhutto returned to Pakistan today, ending eight years of exile and launching what she hopes will be a remarkable political comeback.

Thousands supporting former prime minister Benazir Bhutto gathered in Pakistan’s biggest city today to welcome her home from eight years of exile to centre stage of the country’s volatile politics.

Exiled former prime minister Benazir Bhutto has travelled to Dubai ahead of expected talks today on a political pact that could keep Pakistan president Gen. Pervez Musharraf in office, officials said.
