You would have to be pretty brain dead to beleive that killing three innocent children is going to get you what you want!
such pir mafia is throughout pakistan, i am not sure how the govt in Pakistan is unable / unwilling to take the right step and put all these people to an early grave, i mean in Pakistan capital punishment is legal, and these people are careless and using people's faith as a tool in order to profit and make their lives more difficult ... high time these people should be dealt with and cleansed in a way that no one will do such a thing again
Everyone in the society is looking for shortcuts via somebody (pir & aamils). Nobody want to work themselves starting from their own nafs. Sad state of affairs.
