@Roni, Are u suffering from short term memory loss ?? these kind of news are comming every day on tribune from almost every city of Punjab, waay more than Karachi, considering that Pubjab is approx 5 times the population of Karachi, Karachi is still better off than Punjab.

About other areas of Countries, these kind of stuff never even make it news, as they arent considered news worthy.

@Roni:

Actually it happens everywhere in Pakistan - we usually don't get to hear about what happens in remote villages outside of Punjab. But still, these are shocking depths of depravity to do this to two 70 year old women - old enough to be our grandmothers. And Gulshan-e-Iqbal 13D is an upper middle-class area of Karachi. I think this country is suffering from mass psychosis - maybe it's because of all the inter-marriages. Normal people, even those who are uneducated, don't act like this.
