For truth is always strange, stranger than fiction.

Chu a ziek lai chun ka mit la deu el thu, hieng ang hin a chuong a:

A.N.D Haksar’s brief but compelling account of an impromptu summit meeting between Pakistan’s dictator Zia-ul-Haq and India’s then Prime Minister Morarji Desai in Nairobi in 1978 during the funeral ceremony of Kenyan leader Jomo Kenyatta is one such example that will prod readers to dig deeper into the book.

In the chapter entitled “A Singular Summit,” Haksar writes: “Bhutto was executed in the following summer of 1979 by the Zia government despite pleas for clemency from many leaders and governments around the world. One which made no such plea was India, the Desai government taking the view that the matter was an internal affair of Pakistan. Whether or not the previous summer’s summit had any role in this can only be a subject of speculation.”
