"A short, nervous, ineffectual-looking man," she remembered the general, "whose pomaded hair was parted in the middle and lacquered to his head." Along with the hair, Gen. Zia's thick mustache and diffident manner seemed to Islamabad politicians a Punjabi version of English comedian Terry Thomas. "Bhutto's butler" they called him.
