ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, Dec. 29 (UPI) -- The Pakistan People's Party is free to have Benazir Bhutto's body exhumed if it wants to settle doubts about how she died, a government spokesman said Saturday.

The government suggests the former prime minister was killed when her head hit the sunroof of her car, fracturing her skull. Leaders of Bhutto's party accuse the government of trying to downplay the assassination and insist she was hit by bullets.

Sherry Rehman, the party's information secretary, said she saw the bullet wounds, CNN reported. She called the government's version "the most bizarre dangerous nonsense."

"We don't mind if the People's Party leadership wants her body to be exhumed and post-mortemed," Brigadier Javed Iqbal Cheema' title='Javed Iqbal Cheema' class='tpstyle'>Javed Iqbal Cheema said. "They are most welcome, but we gave you what the facts are."

Videotape of the assassination Thursday show a man firing three times at Bhutto's vehicle, followed shortly thereafter by the explosion as a suicide bomber set off his belt.
