It really frustrates me when people bring provinces into this. Our armed forces and law enforcement agencies are fighting and dying in all provinces trying to protect the rest of us. Stop this province-promotion/bashing non-sense, please.
If the three TTP members opened fire on Rangers personnel, killing them on the spot in retaliatory firing is legally fully justifiable. Why not do that instead of putting them through a useless court process which will eventually let them off with hardly a warning.
This is the main reason why the so-called Karachi operation is a failure - the Rangers enter and search the homes of innocent people who have no choice but to cooperate but go soft on actual criminals who have the guts to fire back.
Only one province where there is some action against the banned outfits.
