This shows the complete failure of this government on law and order. How should a common man feel when police and intelligence officers, who are responsible for protecting people are being killed like this??? Killing an IB or Police official can be done by someone who doesnt care about any repurcussions, who has either very long hands or who is an utter extremist as is the case of taliban and other religious militant outfits... In Karachi it seems more to be politically and ethnically motivated. Very sad and bad. Shame on this government.
