After hearing cases like these, I am bound to believe that the beheadings Saudi Government do is indeed justified.
I think Police should get this lady's statement thoroughly till her statement gets swollen.
But wait! Maybe the family will forgive them based on our Islamic judicial system.
After reading the headline, I was not expecting one of the suspects to a women. Alas! I guess nothing should be surprising in this society anymore.
Despicable. Of course the law should take its course. To all those calling for beheadings and public hangings, our society is already terribly brutalized. Lets put our faith in the mundane but consistent and strict application of law.
Good job Karachi police. Any progress in the good governance province.
DEATH sentence to these monsters! at least they don't belong to waderas and jageedaars.
I think the time has come for public executions by beheading after Juma prayers.
Summary trial and public execution.
before the beasts get any type of legal help, they should be hanged to make it an example.
