Benazir Bhutto's 19-year old son has been appointed chairman of his late mother's leading opposition party in Pakistan.
Bilawal Bhutto will lead the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) together with his father Asif Ali Zardar as co-chairman, party officials announced as cited by the Daily Telegraph.
The teenager became the third leader of the 40-year-old center-left party after the reading of Miss Bhutto's will earlier on Sunday.
Bhutto's political heir, who studies history at Oxford, arrived in Pakistan for his mother's burial on Friday, after she was killed during a suicide bombing attack against her election rally.
Bhutto and her three children went into self-imposed exile in the late 1990s and the former PM did not return until October this year to lead the election campaign of her party.
Pakistani officials announced in the wake of Bhutto's assassination that the parliamentary elections, scheduled for January 8, are likely to be delayed by up to four months.
