Although rumors circulated about the exact cause of former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto's death, local television reporters may have cleared up the details.

Dawn Network, a local Pakistani media outlet, just released still frame pictures of who they believe is the bomber and shooter that assassinated Bhutto.

According to Fox News, who aired the footage, the shooter is a male, aged 22-27, and wearing dark sunglasses. In the grainy, but visible pictures, one can see him holding a gun up to the officials head.

"We saw so many people at the rally holding their phones up and taking pictures of the event," said a Fox News correspondent, "that it was bound to happen that somehow they would go and check those photos and see that they have, in fact, captured the moment she was shot."

The photos might give clear evidence to Bhutto supporters, who claimed the government of President Pervez Musharraf mislead the public about cause of death as a way to divert attention away from the attack.

"Now that they have a photograph of the actual killer," says Fox News, "it's going to be a lot easier for them to trace who ... is behind the attack."

This video is from Fox's Fox News Live, broadcast on December 29, 2007.
