Raza Haider's death
HYDERABAD:
The carnage in the country's largest city goes unchecked with impunity. The law-enforcement agencies look helpless and clueless and further proof - if that were even needed - comes from the murder on Monday of MQM MPA Raza Haider's killing. Our political leaders keep referring to the 'unseen hand' without giving any clear indications of what they think the real problem is. Parties blames each other but apart from that no effort is really made to find out exactly what is causing these target killings. I pray and hope that the MQM's activists will not get provoked and stay calm. May Allah help us all and show us the right path.
