The enemies of peace are lurking everywhere, even in the capital city. We are glad that no life was lost in this attack on the elite forces patrolling the city. Never the less this is a condemnable act. We hope for fast and full recovery of the injured. It is the need of the time to be vigilant against the enemy, whose main purpose is to spread fear and mayhem. We stand with the people and security forces of Pakistan against this common enemy who may be able to create these one off incident of terror but cannot deter the will of a common Pakistani who is striving for peace in the region.
