How can 6 or more attackers come to a busy market with automatic weapons, fire and escape without police chasing them?
KARACHI: The violence in Karachi of the past few days has numbed me. Where is the government, its law-enforcement and the intelligence agencies? How can they not catch even one of the attackers of the dozens killed so far in the past few days? How can six or more attackers come to a busy market with automatic weapons, fire for several minutes and escape without a police van or policemen on motorbikes chasing them? What is happening to this city of mine?
