Bhutto's Children Travel to Dubai



Today, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, who at 19 is the oldest son of slain Bhutto, left for Dubai along with his sisters: Bakhtawar and Aseefa, 17 and 14 respectively.

Their mother was buried in Larkana district in the southern province of Sindh on Friday, having been assassinated in Rawalpindi on Thursday when shock waves from a suicide bomb caused her to fall and sustain a skull fracture.

Bilawal presently studies at Oxford University, his mother's alma mater. He was named chairman of her party after her assassination, but must be 25 years old before he is allowed to join the Parliament.

Her son says he plans to finish his education prior to taking control of his country.
