Operation against Chotu Gang in Rajanpur

These splendid boats can navigate the Indus at least as far up as Kalabagh. Why would they be relegated to mangrove duty only? Especially for an operation like this? Do you have any evidence they are still in use by gov't law enforcement?

How do you know so much about Pakistan?
 
:rofl::rofl::rofl::angel::angel::angel::angel::angel: people's posts tell you in a second how "connected" they really are. So much fan boy gossip!!! I am due a trip to Pakistan in November and I am meeting with Mr. Nissar three days in a row. I can ASSURE you, he has no interest in being a PM (although I'd personally like to see him as one as NS won't try next time due to his health issues, both him and SS can die anytime and which is why they are working very hard to leave a strong legacy, there is no corruption or anything as IK lies about to hide his).

The REASON Ch. Nisar traveled on the same flight was to show IK proofs of his own corruption and all and to let him know any more attacks on NS without any need or reason or proof, will NOT be tolerated. And that NS wants to open up a committee to investigate everything for ALL, so JUSTICE for ALL means, IK, Tareen and Aleem and 70% of their party members go to jail, on issues as serious as anti-trust, corruption, anti-state activities, etc, etc.

The entire system will be damaged as majority of the politicians would end up in jail :rofl::angel:. IK didn't like proofs against him of course :rofl: (SURPRISE). But that's where its at. The show is about to start, NS will prevail as Mushy had ALREADY investigated him to death for a decade. Many other big wigs like IK, will hit the jail!!



MK, you know better. Every gang has connections with ALL politicians, its the SAME in India and elsewhere (look at BJP, RSS, Shiv Sena, etc). This gang specifically uses the Pashtun transportation network to transport weapons and drugs from Afghanistan.

NS or SS don't bring them AA guns in their Mercedes :rofl: :angel:. KPK government has to arrest the one's in this drama and in all other dramas to destabilize Pakistan (majority of terrorists get weapons and drugs through these transporter networks, the lords of which, pay into IK's politics and run their weapon and drug distribution network freely and to the entire globe).

So justice for all, ALL fukkers playing with Pakistan's integrity and growth, distributing drugs across the globe, have one thing to go to, called the JAIL!!!!
am a very poor soul, and just an ordinary citizen of Pakistan ---- heck I can't even connect my Phone to my Car bluetooth and you are talking about me sitting with someone influential ------ Good Luck on your vacations and Tea with Mr.Nisar, but why are you telling us this thing?? do you want me to Pay for your snack time???

you are more than welcome to have you opinion, but not going to shove it down your throat or someone else ---- but ofcourse its a rumor --- you like it , take it----- you don\t like it, then you don't have to-----
 
What, you think I have secret Zionist powers? Info on Indus navigability is on the internet.

Indus has many dams and barrages all along. Boats can not cross them. US supplied boats will be with military. Civilian government did not want to involve military nor did they sought any help. Those boats couldn't be there as a consequence of these two factors.

P.S. Better boats are available with Civilian government in the same area or close by. It just so happens, they never bothered to plan anything. Policemen lost their lives as a consequence.

P.P. S. Still surprised why military has much higher approval rating in Pakistan?

They are equipped with navigational locks. Furthermore - perhaps depending on the flood stage - these patrol boats can likely pass through barrages, on plane and with antenna masts down if necessary.

US supplied boats will be with military.
To the Pakistan Navy's MSA, which as I understand it is supposed to make its assets available to civilian law enforcement on demand.

Civilian government did not want to involve military nor did they sought any help.
Did they even know about these assets? Has the MSA been training and exercising with them, upriver? It does cost more money but obviously it's necessary. This situation developed over months so there was time.

P.S. Better boats are available with Civilian government in the same area or close by.
Better than armor-protected radar- and radio-equipped boats capable of transporting a dozen armed policemen each?

It just so happens, they never bothered to plan anything. Policemen lost their lives as a consequence.
The only source for this is the account of a single police officer, yes?

P.P. S. Still surprised why military has much higher approval rating in Pakistan?
Perhaps that's because the military has decades of public relations experience and everyone is scared of contradicting or blaming them.
 
Why is everyone dropping the ball on this SCANDAL? Here's a bit more to chew on:


Pakistan is raising a special police force to curb crime, strengthen rescue and relief operations during floods and help conserve the endangered Indus dolphin along the River Indus.

The first 700 recruits for the Riverine Amphibious Police Force (RAPF) will graduate in February next year, after being trained by the Pakistan army.

The force will be deployed in districts of Punjab through which the Indus flows , including Rajanpur, Rahim Yar Khan, Muzaffargarh, Dera Ghazi Khan, Layyah, Bhakkar, Mianwali and Attock.

That's right, Pakistani law enforcement may not have had armored patrol boats available, but they were supposed to have trained and equipped an adequate force to do the job by the beginning of last month. Yet there was no sign or breath of them at this operation. Where were they? Why is everyone so quiet about it?
 
Any updates regarding operation?

Is it over and clear already?
Any news from ISPR?

Chotu Gang: A Product of Weak Law and Order and Widespread Corruption
April 29, 2016 7:01 pm

The recent episode of Chotu gang and Punjab Police is a harsh reminder to the state and to the whole nation about how fragile the internal security situation of Pakistan is. Not just that but also how incompetent and ill-equipped our security forces are, to effectively and in time neutralize such elements. Specifically the embarrassing display of incompetency and lack of proper planning on part of Punjab police along with the elite force, counter terrorism department (CTD) and paramilitary Pakistan Rangers Punjab in the recent debacle with the gang of dacoits, where they could not capture the relatively untrained goons. Despite being supposedly formally trained, our law enforcement agencies struggled to tackle Chotu gang which raises a lot of questions about the very credibility of security forces who are responsible to look after the internal security and law and order situation of the state.

It wasn’t just the failure of the police department but also a wakeup call about the deteriorating condition of important state institutions. Despite being much bigger in number the security forces had to face aggressive resistance at the hands of gang members, who were able to kill 7-10 police officials while holding 25 of them as a hostage, and still could not retrieve their companions nor could capture the gang members after a continuous exchange of fire for 17 days.

The fact that they incurred heavy casualties in the process without achieving any success not only brought physical damages but became a source of humiliation for the police force. The gang eventually reportedly surrendered when Pakistan army was called in for the assistance. However it points to a number of weaknesses and glitches in the state infrastructure, and the dire need for the overhauling of security forces and institutions.

Zarb-e-Ahan was the sixth operation by Punjab police against this gang since 2011. It is yet another pointer to the ineptness on their part that despite concurrently confronting this gang they still couldn’t work out an effective operational strategy and instead made it into a constant state of routine fight. Also after allowing it to flourish and grow from 2007 to 2011, it was only inevitable that the gang would have fortified itself sufficiently. The intentional delays and oversights are indicative of condoning the crime and hence abetting it with an only obvious outcome of compromising on state’s security.

Upholding the writ of the state and not comprising on the law and order situation are no brainers but are continuously being taken for granted and seem to be at the bottom of their list of vested interests. Politicians, state authorities and security personnel all seem to be so busy in getting the maximum share of the pie that this only always leave us with one option and that is army, fortunately or unfortunately the only “functional institution” of Pakistan. This is probably the reason why it still enjoys respect of the common people and even the criminals in this particular case who reportedly surrendered because they had the respect for army and did not opt to put up a fight against them.

However it is also to be kept in mind that army is already too over stretched in various operations and should not always be taken for granted. Instead immediate institutional reforms and implementation of new governance policies is the real need of time. Law enforcement agencies should be made stronger and functional while corruption should not be tolerated at any level. Accountability procedures should be made credible by introducing strict punitive measures.

While having no sympathies for the gang leader and his members, it is still important to follow the right procedure, which would be to give them fair chance and trial in the court. As per the reports, Ghulam Rasool, the gang leader, had previously been working as a security guard for the PML-N MPA Atif Mazari for three to five years in Rohjan and also for the Punjab Police as an informer till 2007 against the criminals in Rajanpur and Muzzaffargarh districts.

It is believed that he parted ways and created his own gang because of some unknown differences with the police. However as per Ghulam Rasool’s account, it was the fake cases registered against him that made him resort to criminal activities. This also points to the societal differences and class stratification which allows for the disgruntled factions of the society to resort to immoral alternatives. In the absence of any credible law and justice, it becomes the only option available to them.

Even if there were differences, he shouldn’t have been allowed to carry on with his activities. A former ally should have at least been slightly easier to keep a check on. But keeping the eyes shut and letting the things happen under their nose, out of callousness and lack of will to enforce law and order, allows for such elements to grow into bigger demons, and that’s exactly what happened in this case.

Either his grievances should have been addressed right there and then or he should have been disallowed from freely accumulating strength. The police department’s lassitude in such matters clearly points to the corrupt practices which are so abundant that the complete overhauling from top to down is the only way out. Otherwise it could be anybody’s guess that the weak law and order will keep instigating the growth of several more Ghulam Rasools and Chotu Gangs.
