No more free hand to killers n Karachi.... PTI wl never accept nor wl blackmail of terror wings of karachi based Taliban controlled from UK.
The rapprochement brokered by former General Pasha between MQM and PTI seems to die its logical death after the retirement of Pasha. PTI has a hawkish approach when it's leadership rants abuses at others. It has been at daggers drawn against PMLN, JUIF and now MQM. Some kids can't live without fighting with others!
STRANGE! Is it mandatory by law for any citizen to be at spot (Physical presence) before nominating name of person for FIR / Statement for any murder. I DONT THINK SO
