This is the nation Pakistan was made for... Fighting amongst each other... Sindhi, Punjabi, KPK... R we not Pakistani's first? This is a shameful incident which should be condemned but everyone here is busy scoring points for their political parties... For those people who are bashing PTI over this incident why don't you check how many rapes were reported on this websites from Punjab in the last month alone... Its not about provinces right now wake up!!
All these guys talking about this as a reflection on the govt and its so called failure need to read the fact that and FIR has been lodged, and the guy is on the run.... they can also read about the several actions taken against govt employees in KPK.... This is the difference.... nobody is holding up FIRs or trying to prevent NAB from doing its job... in fact, it seems on occasion they themselves go to involve NAB in matters....
And btw... how about going a page back and reading this other piece of news from today also related to the KPK Police....

Why are they the first ones in the country to be doing this?!
@Adnan Siddiqi. Do you live in Heaven where no crime happens. Its not about committing a crime its all about punishing it. If you do not punish the criminals then they get emboldened. I would like to hear your thoughts about the women that was killed in Lahore in front of policemen at the entrance of Lahore High Court. The second thing is that PTI is in power in KPK for the last 1 year and you call us knuckle headed for supporting it. Then tell me about those who are supporting PML-N which has ruled Punjab for more than 10 years and again I say that we saw what happened in front of Lahore High Court in front of the Policemen. I would like to have your answer.
@ Adnan Siddiqi. What kind of sick mind do you have. Do you think we are living in heaven. Crimes are committed everywhere in the world. The difference is they punish the perpetrators while in Pakistan they are released honourably or no case is registered against them. And by the way who is the knuckle headed follower, the one whose leader has been governing a province for 1 year or the one whose leaders have governed a province 06 times formore than 10 years and failed. Tell me what is happening in the case of the women killed in front of the high court and the Punjab Police stood watching. I would like to see your comment regarding that incident.
Shame that our so called protectors are acting like criminals.
Lollzzzz.....since when did "Showing a Mirror" become paid commentary? It really does suck to be a knuckle headed follower of a Fan Club.
Yup you are right The Failed Rebel. They are paid for sure. Time will tell who is on the right path.
@Rambo: @Waseem: @Naseebo lal: Please gentlemen and (Don't know the gender of Naseebo Lal. Please do not pay heed to the paid commentators. This is a grim event and using it for point scoring shows lack of vision. It's better you rather show solidarity against this heinous crime and hope that the perpetrator will be punished severely. PTI Zindabad ;)
@faraz:
Not only Police reforms but PTI's poor man's wiz kid Asad Umar also claimed on Talk Shows that he can build a Pindi-ISB Metro system at a cost of Rs. 4 Billion. Lo and behold, the government he advices in KPK now comes up with a feasibility study on a similar mass transit program for Peshawar at a cost of Rs. 60 billion!!!
A rather comical claim was also spewed on talk shows that the CM and Governor House in Peshawar will be turned into mueseums and libraries. Can someone from Peshawar verify if this is the case so that I can also come and pay a visit to these mueseums and libraries. As for Police Reforms, here is IK's claim that KPK will form a Scotland Yard like Police unit :D :D

@faraz: i am not referring to any slogan. It is a statement. Like parha likha Karachi. I got my basics right. You need to get your mind right.
@Adnan Siddiqi: Go cry about your Punjab police. Let alone that they cant protect the rape victim, instead they also molest the victim. This is your parha likha punjab!
@Umar: We relax....you no worry. But when you relax......we worry and we no leave you to relax coz relax only for opposition.
@Adnan Siddiqi: HAHAHAHAHA. You are absolutely right. Thumbs up
@Umar:
You are wrong homie! It takes a lot of effort and stamina to fly first class all over the world and beg for donations and zakat from Pakistani Diaspora on account of providing free cancer treatment. This task even requires a lot of intellect and business acumen to channel such funds through dubious offshore accounts in Cayman Island and into dud real estate investments in Oman or fund the shehanshi lifestyle of the leader of the personality cult.
@Bubby: Ya Man relax and enjoy. Your manic old man Imran haven't worked throughout his life so how can the PTIans. Be happy and enjoy geting enough funds from ...
This will continue until Rule of Allah (Hudood Ullah) is adopted and implemented on earth. We read and listen to such horrible news in routine. But how many culprits have been punished???? It is because the present rules protect the criminals and not the victims. .......Enjoy the fruit of disobedience.
@Adnan Siddiqi: U will see the KPK police in 5 year time they will be best police in Pakistan . As KPK police is now free of any influence. I can share with u one incident , a week back deputy speaker s bro was involved in rape case and he tried his best to influence the police but CM said do decision on matter and he is in jail now ..
@Adnan Sidiqi:
What has 'Naya KPK' to do with this?? we all must condemn this incident and ensure justice is served and an example is set for everyone!
How much ignorant and fool are my country men who are spewing hatred against PTI govt in the comments section. A shameless incident committed by an individual does not reflect the failure of KPK govt. PTI does not cherry picked every individual police man or any other govt servant. The real measure of performance would be the action against such individuals who commit a crime.
Hope ET will publish my comment.
KPK police has improved a lot. it is time to show the metal. This is the time to show the people how fast you can catch the culprit and punish him. You can do it KPK Police.
@Adnan Siddiqi: Have some shame. You are using this article also as point scoring.
I am sure that the people of KPK are thrilled at this NAYA KPK unravelling in front of their eyes.
@Timorlane: KPK police is no longer under KPK CM. They are answerable themselves. Regarding Rallies. I am going to it on 22 June 2014. All Insafians are invited.
Test case for PTI govt who proudly says they have reformed the police department.
Let's see how KPK police deals with this situation. I hope they don't follow the footsteps of Punjab police who only work when CM Punjab takes 'notice' and he only takes notice when there is a lot of hue and cry in the press. If you can't create enough hue and cry, you don't get justice, that's how punjab police works.
Sorry PTI government is busy in rallies no time for "petty" affairs
