@KH: Of course they are still muhajirs. Who will you guys discriminate against otherwise? Who will be your scapegoat for everything wrong with Karachi? As for MQM, they have tried hard in the last 16 years to be Muttahida; so much that they stopped talking about quota system. But continued ethnic discrimination and slaughter of Muhajirs by Islamabad and Sindh based governments keeps the Muhajir identity alive.
@KH: "They are no mohajirs anymore."
If that was true, -quota system in job and education sector would have been abolished -Police in Karachi would not be imported, but made up of locals. -and then there is a long list..
So, wake up.
@KH: yes true mohajir drama be stopped after 60 years of migration , if you please get qouta system horrer be abolished which was implemented last 40 years with the sole purpose of keeping educated and talented mohajirs out of jobs and higher education.
@Sahil: stop palying this Mohajir drama, its more than 60 years since we migrated. They are no mohajirs anymore. Its time for MQM to get what it was giving us poor civilians.
@Noman....if they arrest you police can put any nick name after your name..as well as cases
Please do no start this ethnic stuff, whoever is involved in any of the criminal activity should be dealt with accordingly..... If anyone is innocent, the justice should happen with them and their families too.....
" accused in 150 killings"...They got what they deserved!! Courts can't punish these murderers, Thank God, someone did better than letting them out on the streets again.
It is all rhetoric that it is not the 90s, for Karachites, nothing will change, people killed at will by the LEAs, all the time, there is no stopping to it
They have aliases or part of mafia or what so ever who give right to intel agencies to extra judicial kill them? It's a murder and people who done it should be booked for murder.
alias "Banda",.. alias "Kabari" If they were innocent why they had nick names? Mafia
Why someone would have aliases if not in illegal activities?
