Muhammad Junejo

Muhammad Khan Junejo (18 August 1932 – 18 March 1993) was a Pakistani politician and statesman who served as the tenth prime minister of Pakistan from 1985 to 1988 under president Zia-ul-Haq. He sought to strengthen the parliamentary system and assert civilian control over national affairs, which resulted in tensions with the Zia administration, ultimately leading to his dismissal.

His inquiries into the Ojhri Camp Disaster, appointment of Aslam Beg as VCOAS, various Corps Commanders, growing control over senior military promotions, forays into international politics, rejecting Zia appointments in his cabinet, stance against martial law, austerity policies and purported spying on Zia through the civilianized Intelligence Bureau all contributed to the souring in their relation.
