| Summary: | For forty years, whether in power or as members of the opposition, the Bhutto family played a pivotal role in Pakistan's violently turbulent politics. As its first democratically-elected leader Zulfikar Bhutto wrote the nation's constitution, but was deposed by coup and executed in 1979. His children endured years of imprisonment and exile until daughter Benazir returned to Pakistan, and at just 35 years of age, became the first woman to run a Muslim country. This program provides a biography of the Bhuttos, focusing on Benazir's rise to power and the challenges of the three terms she spent as prime minister until her assassination in 2007. |
