Silence of the courts

Letter March 09, 2012
The missing persons are being portrayed by the news channels as innocent victims.

KARACHI: There are double standards at work in Balochistan. The missing persons are being portrayed by the news channels as innocent victims, while the FC is being vilified and shown as the evil villains. Why aren’t the leaders of the terrorist groups working in Balochistan ever held accountable for killing Punjabi and Urdu-speaking civilians in Balochistan?

The courts have a duty to treat all people fairly but it’s only the case of the missing persons that gains all the attention.
