FAROOQ | 14 years ago | Reply The city Karachi is awaiting that a brave man as former Interior Minister Naseer Ullah Babar take charge of the city and take stern action again culprits who is involved in targetting killing and other convicts. All departments e.g. police, and law and order insitutions are unable to peform their duties becuase of political pressure.

Ghulam shabbir | 14 years ago | Reply What the hell is going out there! Pakistan is drowning due to flood and even the Barbaric Taliban have stopped their attacks but Karachi is still burning /burnt by insiders.Zardari should have cancel his "trip" to Europe and find out the solution of this bloody game.I think its only Pak Army who can stop it but what to do.It is Army who is fighting against terrorist, doing relief work , looking at foreign policy, what could more we expect from them!

Faheem | 14 years ago | Reply The target killing in Karachi is just because of the lawlessness and the inability of the security insitutions to have their writ. All the parties in Karachi have their own areas and they are busy in settling the scores and to have their hegemony where they could. Nobody is innocent and everybody is victim in Karachi right now. Millions and millions of people of Karachi are simply sheep.
