Spoiling young generation by showing sex related movies and dramas.
@Raj - USA: haha, you are hilarious and lame.
@Imran: Truth always sounds like trolling and when you hear facts you just call it hate. Every word I have said is factual, and you know it.
Link everything to TTP to bash PTI.
@Raj - USA: You just broke the troll-o-meter. Well done.
@Khan: "The sudden rise and and similarity of these incidents is very suspicious."
Nothing suspicious here. It was expected. For decades, parents have been teaching their children to kidnap and rape hindu girls. Not even one got punished but they were all praised. So, this has become a part of the culture.
Capital Punishment for Rapists
@Vishnu Dutta: You seem vengeful. It is good that a neighbor reports a crime, rather not.
These incidences have been happening in India, South Asia and rest of the world. Pls be thankful that someone (in this case ET) is reporting it.
..Peace
The sudden rise and and similarity of these incidents is very suspicious.
Strict implementation of Sharia will Innshallah solve this kind of problems.
this is height of lawlessness..when terrorist of Lal mosque are being freed without any charges..how the common man will respect law?
@Imran: the only public hanging in Pakistan's history was in Zia's era when a gang of youth were hanged in Karachi for kidnapping a girl, killing her and then demanding ransom from her parents.
@Vishnu Dutta: These cases are getting the attention they deserve instead of being relegated to a small section on page 7.
These incidents are coming to attention due to media taking interest and identifying problem within the society. Lawlessness does not arise singularly but across the spectrum and perpetrators of such heinous crime has likely done this before. Until we have strong forensic capability these criminals will not stop. Likely they are serial killers With the PM busy trying to make him richer and spend billions on tunnel, overpass, underpass or trans-Pakistan high-speed rail that no one needs, he is ignoring more important things right under his nose.
sick minds behind this .
We want capital punishment
How come these incidents started happening in bulk all of sudden. these used to be rare incidents and now we hear a lot about them and its hard to keep track.
Or is it that they are now being reported and rest used to go un reported.
feels like a open season
@aqib: What public punishments are you talking about, when the government is encouraging crime, killing, and militias by declaring an armed gang as a stakeholder, and given blanket amnesty to them despite the seriousness and severity of their crimes. Do you really believe the state cares about a rape and murder of a few hundred children? They are all partner in crimes.
It is most important that public punishments (to create fear in favour of law) are carried out after quick trials (not lasting decades), if there is to be any semblence of justice in this land.

What to talk of TTP, everyone here is TTP.
