The News reporting he and his fellow terrorists were killed by police. If so, this is an excellent development, because the local police could not have acted without the backing of politicians.

No with orders from Army, it was Army. Politicians lost balls long ago. It was Army who gave the go ahead.

Didn't they arrest him 3 days ago and now he's dead?

Pakistan can never seem to get it right.

Yes for past 16 years he gets arrested and gets released because of our great courts. So this time job was done outside of court.

Supposedly they took him to the area where the encounter took place to help track accomplices and got ambushed, resulting in the deaths.

The man was a avowed sectarian hate-monger and terrorist, with links to Al Qaeda. I don't care how he died, so long as he died at the hands of law enforcement, especially civilian law enforcement.

It was already taking place in Baluchistan but operation in Punjab has begun also NAB chairman has reached Lahore to take action against corrupt people and Mafias.

Yes, the signs have been there for a while. The crackdown on hate speech by preachers, ASWJ's muted public responses to some suspicious tit for tat sectarian attacks on Sunni and Shia personalities, and Mauvia of Punjabi Taliban fame publicly renouncing violence. At the end of the day there was probably a realization that groups like LeJ and Jundullah will be the opening groups like ISIS need to expand into mainstream Pakistan, and would pose a far bigger threat than the TTP converts to ISIS (the latter being isolated geographically).

However, I'm reluctant to confidently say this is a sustained policy shift until additional evidence of a wider crackdown emerges.

Mate, thats standard police encounter style followed every where. No wasting of time in courts or evidence required.
If human rights ppl raise a question police receive salary + suspension => paid vacation.

I disagree, I think this is the ways they should be treated, but care should be taken to take any such action so that no innocent is harmed.

This looks like a GENUINE shootout since 6 cops took hits too.
