RIP Begum Nusrat Bhutto

Letter October 24, 2011
Nusrat Bhutto showed the way to Pakistan to understand and realise that one can stand and fight a military dictator.

ISLAMABAD: Nusrat Bhutto showed the way to the Pakistani nation to understand and realise that one can stand and fight a military dictator. She bravely fought General Zia’s dictatorship. The picture of her head profusely bleeding, caused by a police baton-charge, outside Lahore’s Qaddafi Stadium is still etched in our memories.
