* WhatAnIdiot: Honestly, his entire play with Jack was imbecile from the start. The Chinese were torturing Jack far worse than what he could do...But he still wanted to deal with Jack himself...and when he got Jack, he confessed he was the one behind the attack...and carelessly leaves Jack guarded with one guy while he stepped out to take a phone call, whom Jack kills, and then escapes. He ends up dead because of this.

* FatalFlaw: His pride and sadism. He could have let Jack continue rotting in China or killed him right away when he got back. But he not only had to be the one to kill Jack but couldn't resist gloating about being the one behind the attacks beforehand. This all comes back to bite him hard.

* DiscOneFinalBoss: Played with; he actually is the ultimate boss of his terrorist group and acts as the primary threat for most Day 6. He gets killed off about two-thirds of the way through the season though, and Phillip Bauer and Cheng Zhi -- who are working independently of Fayed -- take over as the antagonists.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Played with. He wants to kill Jack for avenging his brother's death. However when Jack escapes him he gives up following him and he doesn't even seems to care for it. Moreover it's revealed that his brother was responsible for thousand deaths. So either he's angry at Jack for having killed an useful asset or simply for a matter of honor.
