Zulzar Ali Bhutto, a factotum in Pakistani politics for a quarter of a century, the day they hanged, on 4 April 1979, would probably not be a very nice day for the critique Imran Khan. The melodies that can barely tell how far the truth comes and where urban legend begins, say that there was a small love story between Bhutto's daughter, Benazzir and Imran, while elite Pakistanis were in the UK a few years earlier. You know.

However, politically it does not seem to cause a major disturbance: The socializing gestures of the PPP of the rich sindhi Ali Bhutto would not be particularly welcome in the Lahore middle-class paxtarra Khan. And in any case, the crime was then Imran's passion and life. In over 20 years of career, he would reach the top of Pakistani national sport, to become a legend. Really enriching it, yes.

After twice being prime minister and jumping a terrible attack on the head of the opposition, on 27 December 2007, when a second bomb killed Benazzir, Imran Khan, a criminal playboy, on a political platform that already had and has its own policy: Tehreek-e-Insaf. And beyond thoroughly rejecting the murder, he will surely have taken an account of it inside.

In Pakistani politics, among many other risks, because something is vital: Disturb the army. In any country in the world, the state has an army; in Pakistan, the army has a state. It is not entirely false, for example, nuclear weapons are controlled by the Army, not by the Government.

And it's very easy to anger the Pakistani army. They are witnesses Bhutto, father and daughter, Nawaz Sharif, etc. From there come the courts or murders that will never be clarified. In 2022, it was Khan’s turn, being stripped of by the betrayal of all opposition and some of its members in the 2018 elections.

Imran Khan’s novelty is that, knowing what he knows, rather than being able to mobilise populist governance – success among the poorest, the vast majority – and a mass movement outside traditional forces, he has dared to confront the Army. And, by the way, with EE.UU. He has turned to his defeat. It will be a kind of daring of the good critics.

Now, in the midst of crisis, Imran Khan says that the army leaders want to murder him. I would bet yes.
