Corruption in the Bhutto family was endemic.

Follow the money. Pakistan is a full-fledged narcoeconomy (and Nawiz Sharif is by means exempt, through close family ties). There are very few good guys here.

Bhutto herself had been in exile as the result of a corruption scandal, her father was executed for official corruption.

One of her brothers was mysteriously poisoned on the French Riviera, and another was convicted of hijacking a plane in 1983. He was later killed in a shootout with Pakistani police in 1996.

Benazir Bhutto carried a lot of baggage.
