Maulvi Mushtaq Hussain

Maulvi Mushtaq Hussain was a Pakistani jurist who served as chief justice of the high court of Lahore. He played a controversial role in pronouncing former prime minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto guilty of murder and ordered his death. He was suspected of having close links to Zia-ul-Haq, who deposed Bhutto in 1977. During the 70s, Maulvi Mushtaq Hussain was accused by a British lady of trying to rape her in UK. Later Mr Bhutto, owing to his misconduct unbecoming of a jurist and record, refused to elevate Mushtaq to the coveted post of chief justice-ship of Lahore High Court. Many experts and Pakistan-watchers believe that Maulvi Mushtaq never forgave this act of Bhutto and made him to pay for it, during one of the the most controversial trials of human history.

It has been known, though not verified, that a bevvy of honey bees descended upon people at the funeral of Maulvi Mushtaq causing a minor stampede.
