Two days ago dead body of young was found on the heap of rubbish he was heroin addict. When asked his mother where from he got heroin she told me that he got it(token) from the street where it been sold out freely. Come on all criticize the role of law enforcement agencies not properly operating failed in playing the role as submitted by the the law of the land to them.

Sultan Ahmed | 14 years ago | Reply Watched many films on this subject, there is complete resemblance, Awaise Khan is true in his statement, it need more investigation.

Sultan Ahmed | 14 years ago | Reply Without involvement of high profiles it can not be carried out who behind the scene to see it that is need of the time.

Syed A Mateen | 14 years ago | Reply Congratulations to Anti Narcotics Force. Seizure of Narcotics is less important. The most important fact is who are the people behind this crime? I am sure that ANF will pursue the case and will arrest people and put them behind the bars and prosecute them in the court of law. By the way let me tell to the readers of these valued columns that in most of the Islamic countries, drug smugglers are awarded death penalties. People want to see that capital punishment should be awarded to drug smugglers.
