Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari, who was forced by his opponents to accept the demand to reinstate sacked judges, has been listed the fifth biggest loser in the world by the prestigious Foreign Policy magazine.

"Zardari was known to be a bad guy long before he became Pakistan's President. Many of the closest friends of his late wife Benazir Bhutto could not stand him. Now, as it turns out, neither can most of the Pakistani people," read the citation by the US-based magazine.

"Locked in a bitter struggle with opposition leader Nawaz Sharif, Zardari showed his weakness by capitulating to demands to reinstate Pakistan's former Chief Justice per Sharif's demands. Now in a desperate attempt to reassert control of his own party he may be plotting the ouster of his Prime Minister," the magazine said in an article on the world's 13 biggest losers.


Austrian businessman Josef Fritzl was among the losers for locking his daughter in the basement of his house and making her his sex slave.

Bernie Madoff, the US swindler who defrauded taxpayers of $60 billion, was also included in the list.

Others included on the Foreign Policy list are Edward Liddy, executive of US giant AIG (no 13); Forbes Billionaires List (no 12); Eliot Spitzer also of AIG (no 11); British Prime Minister Gordon Brown (no 10) and Israeli political Bibi Netahanyahu (no 9).

Here are thirteen choices from this month's headlines ranked by, as the magazine said, 'just how little sympathy we should have for them':

13.) Edward Liddy
12.) Forbes Billionaires List
11.) Eliot Spitzer
10.) Gordon Brown
9.) Bibi Netanyahu
8.) A.I.G. Bonus Babies
7.) Ben Bernanke
6.) Tim Geithner
5.) Asif Ali Zardari
4.) Chris Dodd
3.) Bernie Madoff
2.) The Pope
1.) Josef Fritzl
