Kharotabad inquiry: Police surgeon killed in Quetta

[NiceFarmer]

Quetta: A police surgeon who had conducted autopsies on the bodies of foreigners who were shot dead in the Kharotabad areawas killed in Quetta on Thursday.


Police Surgeon Dr Baqir Shah was killed on Sabzal Road when unidentified gunmen opened fire on him. He passed away before reaching the hospital.


Dr Shah had also come under attack on the day he had recorded his statement with the Kharotabad tribunal. He was attacked by up to 10 people when he was on a visit to a restaurant and had to be rushed to the civil hospital due to the severity of his wounds.


In his testimony to the tribunal, Dr Shah had confirmed that all the victims had died of gunshot wounds from police and FC weapons fired from a distance of 50 – 60 feet, instead of a hand grenade as claimed by the police. This was one of the incriminating evidences pointing towards gross negligence of the police and FC personnel.


The victims, a five-member party of men and women of Russian and Tajik nationalities, were unarmed. An inquiry report presented to the parliamentary committee on the killings also said that none of the victims had fired a shot, and that FC personnel injured in the incident had been struck by bullets fired by other FC personnel and police.

Quetta: Gunmen in
southwestern Pakistan
on Thursday killed a
police surgeon who had
received threats for his
role in investigating the deaths of five foreigners
at the hands of security
forces earlier this year,
police said. Surgeon Baqir Shah
conducted the autopsies
on the five foreigners,
including three women,
who security forces
initially said were would- be suicide bombers who
died May 17 when they
detonated a grenade at a
checkpoint near Quetta,
the capital of Baluchistan
province. But Shah found that the
unarmed foreigners from
central Asia, one of
whom was pregnant,
were killed by a hail of
bullets. Video showed one of the women raising
her arm in what
appeared to be a
pleading gesture as the
security forces fired. Shah was severely
beaten by men who he
claimed were police soon
after he testified before a
government commission
set up to investigate the deaths. Police denied the
allegations. The surgeon continued
to receive threats until he
was shot Thursday by
unknown gunmen in
Quetta, said police officer
Nazir Ahmed Khurd. The government tribunal
held several police and
paramilitary soldiers
responsible for the
deaths of the foreigners.

And the rabbit hole of lies continues... But things won't change until the people are willing to turn a blind eye towards their army.

A grim day for justice. Why is the Police Commissioner of Quetta not been dismissed and an investigation launched. It's the right thing to do, or what?

Sorry I was a little too quick to speak and I did not know enough about the case. My fault!
I just get so offended if top officials are not held accountable.

Govt. is pro bharti and Military is pro Pakistani... and double agent Rehman Malik is apparently head of interior ministry but he is the middleman who control Pakistan.

Only Rehman Malik is in position to protect bharti implants and interests in Pakistan.

Pakistan army is being targeted by the very same terrorists who were going to be exposed by the doctor.
