IK is silent over arrest....PTI should give a fatwa against its sympathized group... Lets see the famous jargo of "three weeks and three months" to eliminate corruption and terrortism....
well, IK forwarded an excuse of lacking antional strategy on terrorism, what about corruption?
time is ticking.....
if our honorable judges convict this as KILLER and awarded death penalty.. I offer my FREE services to inject few hundred grams of lead in his head.
@goggi (Lahore): the definitioin of barbarous society is "housing scheme of barbers."
Why no negotiations with this terrorist?
The person in the picture is the MPA who was murdered not the terrorist. @Dilip:
The Government should start peace talk with him.
Let's hear Imran Khan tell us that his MPA died because of drones. Why not?
But the Judiciary release the ones arrested under terrorism charges on the plea of lack of sufficient evidence.
@p r sharma: please stop asking such rhetoric questions.this is pakistan
Public execution if convicted.
Dear ET! he won as an independent candidate and then subsequently joined PTI.
Pakistan need peace. we are tired.
@p r sharma: Couldn't agree less. Its very strange that no one and i mean NO ONE has ever made such question&answers public to the masses. We are simply being kept in the dark/deception/delusion.
Confession to police is nothing in the eyes of law. A confession to "Magestrate" is the real confession and he is yet to be produced before the court. So hold your horses unless he is produced before the court.
What is the fuss, he killed one MPA and 36 other ppl because of drones. We should talk with him on a tea table accept his demands and let him go.
The question to be answered 1). where did he receive training,2) who are the persons / organisation imparting training, 3) their source of fund 4) their connection with political party,/ radical if any,5) how come training remains continued un noticed ??? There are many more questions whose answers to be found out. Can any journalist investigate into these matters as police intelligence so far have proved them in efficient.
execute him publically
Positive development: At least a terrorist was caught this time.
What is the definition of a barbarous society?
Let see does he get punishment from our courts immediately or not.
