Two suicide bombers were behind the attack that targeted the former Pakistani prime minister Benazir Bhutto as she returned from exile, one of the country's top intelligence officials said today.

Ms Bhutto escaped unhurt in the attack on her heavily guarded convoy in Karachi on Thursday. At least 136 people were killed in the blasts.

Police initially said only one suicide bomber had carried out the attack, but the official - speaking on condition of anonymity - said two severed heads found at the scene, and the fact that no families had claimed either, suggested two men were responsible.

The planners of the attack would be "brought to book", the Pakistani prime minister, Shaukat Aziz, said in a statement released today.

His statement rejected Ms Bhutto's request for experts from the US and Britain to be called in to help with the investigation into the blasts.

Mr Azizsaid that, in past attacks, "our security agencies [have] successfully investigated and arrested the perpetrators and are fully capable of investigating such untoward incidents".

Ms Bhutto was allowed back into Pakistan from exile after apparently striking a power-sharing deal with the president, General Pervez Musharraf.

However, she has been engulfed in a war of words with Mr Aziz's government - which is backed by Gen Musharraf - and in particular with the chief of the Pakistan Muslim League party, Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain, following Thursday's attack.

The government has blamed the blasts on pro-Taliban Islamic militants, but Ms Bhutto says important figures from Mr Hussain's party could be implicated.

She claimed he was "protecting the killers" but gave no further details.

Mr Hussain responded by saying Ms Bhutto's husband had arranged the blasts to stir up public sympathy, adding that the former prime minister had gone into her armoured vehicle minutes before the bombs exploded and was not hurt.

In exchange for being allowed home from exile, Ms Bhutto was expected to form an alliance with Mr Hussain's party to back Gen Musharraf in a January parliamentary vote.

However, the fallout from the attack appears to have strained the potential for such cooperation.s way."
