Islamabad - Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said the United Nations has agreed to set up a commission to investigate last year's killing of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto, news reports said Friday.

"The objectives for the commission are to identify the culprits, perpetrators, organizers and financiers of the assassination," he told reporters after meeting with UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon in New York late Thursday.

Ban indicated that further consultations with Pakistan and other UN members were needed to determine the procedures and structure of the UN panel, the state-run Associated Press of Pakistan news agency quoted Qureshi as saying.
