Benazir Bhutto
21 June 1953 — 27 December 2007

Benazir Bhutto was a politician and leader who left an indelible mark on the country she loved, and the country she died for. Below are a few stories and interviews from our archives on this remarkable person. Some of the articles are from her days in exile, others are about her return to Pakistan and the NRO, and of course others cover her assassination and the investigations that followed. Still, there are more: friends and colleagues remember her in interviews, tributes and through film. And there is even a revisiting of a review of her posthumously released book: Reconciliation.
