    A great way to get rid of the “Punjabi Taliban” notion the nation is bombarding the Sharif’s with. But hey, how can they let a finger be pointed at them. Its the Pakhtoons who get the blame once again. What about this first news http://tribune.com.pk/story/25212/data-darbar-mayhem-security-beefed-up-in-lahore/ of a person who has been missing from home for a while, and a resident of Lahore.

    Well, Rana Sanaullah, your drama is going to cost you a lot more now, because you are again creating ethnic differences.Recommend

    I think we should conclude all formalities immediately hang these culprits in front of people on the street. That is the only solution.Recommend

    We need to put all the bad guys behind the bars to chieve peace.

    The government should order to make new jails all over the country to accommodate these bad guys. Enough is enough. We must deal with them with an iron hand.Recommend

    Just below this it says “Aabpare blast suspects acquitted by court due to lack of evidence”.
    Why waste time and energy just let this lot also go so that they can blow someone else up, they will be let go eventually.
    When there is no will to do the right thing, there is no way the right thing will be done.Recommend
