ISLAMABAD/KARACHI: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, Asifa Bhutto and Bakhtawar Bhutto have decided not to travel together due to security reasons.

Sources said that the decision was made on the advice of security agencies. They said that the three siblings decided that they would not travel together, apart from air travel. Asifa Bhutto visited the house of late PPP leader Jehangir Bader to offer her condolences, and sources claimed that Bilawal Bhutto would also visit Lahore soon and meet the family of one of the most dedicated party workers.

On the other hand, the Sindh High Court (SHC) has given the federal government a week to file a reply in Bilawal Bhutto’s security case.

According to media reports, the case came up for hearing before the SHC on Wednesday, in which the counsel for the Sindh government submitted that complete security was being provided to Bilawal Bhutto.

He took the plea that according to the requirement of the petitioner, the authorities were ready to provide him adequate security. The court adjourned the hearing of the case until November 24, telling the federal government to file a reply.

Bilawal Bhutto took the plea in his petition that terrorists had targeted his mother, and undemocratic and extremist forces wanted to cause harm to him too. Therefore, he requested the court to let him use bulletproof vehicle with tinted glasses.
