Benazir Bhutto was the first woman to lead a post-colonial Muslim state. Bhutto was elected Prime Minister of Pakistan in 1988, only to be deposed 20 months later by the country’s military-supported president Ghulam Ishaq Khan who controversially used the Eighth Amendment to dissolve parliament and force an election. She was re-elected in 1993 but was dismissed three years later amid various corruption scandals by then president Farooq Leghari, who also used the Eighth Amendment discretionary powers.
