* Panic grips entire locality, 12 nabbed in operation

KARACHI: A 12-year-old boy and a man were killed while another wounded when unidentified armed motorcyclists sprayed bullets on a private car of Crime Investigation Department (CID)’s Sub-Inspector Ashiq Khosa on Monday evening within the jurisdiction of Zaman Town police station.

According to SI Khosa, his son Rehan and nephew Masroor remained safe since the driver did not stop the car after being hit.

According to reports, at least four armed men on two motorcycles stormed the car and escaped after completing their swift operation.

SSP CID Fayyaz Khan said SI Khosa was posted in the CID for last ten years and been playing a pivotal role in several cases of terrorism, target killing and other heinous crimes. He was lately working on target killings and had helped CID nab several target killers. CID officials believed that the associates of target killers might have been involved in the incident. Khosa being on the hit list of terrorists, had approached the police superiors for security but to no avail.

According to SHO Hatim Marwat, the case was being investigated from all aspects and nothing could be said about the motive of culprits.

Two victims who lost their lives were later identified as Ali Mohammad Chandio, 12 and Abdul Hameed son of Irfan Baloch, 40. They lived in the same area and hailed from interior Sindh. Chandio used to serve the table at a nearby teashop. Both victims were passing by when they met the tragedy.

The incident sent a wave of panic in the locals and routine and commercial activities were suspended. A heavy contingent of law enforcers was called at the scene to avoid any untoward incident. The victims’ relatives accompanied by a score of residents staged a protest and demanded the arrest of culprits.

This section is dedicated towards Pakistan’s war against the terrorists that are fighting the state and its people.
Gang war, ethnic violence and stories related to communal riots and disturbances don’t fall in this category, they are civil unrest and sporadic crime spree at best, just because they affect a large number of people they don’t fall under the category of terrorism but crime. The courts in Pakistan , India and UK will register then as a crime.

Taliban & BLA. On the other hand are fighting the state in essence and they are not discriminating between state enforcement personal or civilians and personal property or public infrastructure. Mind the difference or have your posts deleted.
