@Viking Star: I just love your comments. Hahaaah! Simply fantastic! Salams
Our politicians always gets bails and get bails from courts every time who are ordered to be arrested by courts and accused in Billions of rupees scam.
Run away brothers .. Run for your life.
No, they did not escape. They were helped, aided and abetted by their sympathizers. Also huge bribes were paid to the police. Who will suspend a constable or two, for a month or so, with pay. Then put them back to work, quitely. After the higher ups get their shares.
We are not at all surprised by this news. The Sindh govt, under centuries old CM, just has big loud mouthed info minister (Mr. Memon) and the full cabinet is good for nothing. The only question here is ‘who helped them escape‘?
Ask Jail officials how much they earned.
No matter how much security you put on alert. You can't stop the "Inside Job" !
