Raymond Davis Case: Developing Story

[RescueRanger]

He killed them for following him ?? Nowhere does it state that he believed that his life was being threatened by the bikers. Jeez he sure has a lot to answer for. If not in Pakistan then definately in his country

The bikers were armed no doubt about it, they have recovered a Marakov 32. Cal from the scene belonging to the pillion rider. So it's very sketchy.

If self defence is proven fair enough, i respect that but this should goto trial, at least for the vehicular manslaughter of the innocent biker during his escape.

As for his designation "Technical Adviser" AKA "Spook" so we all know what's going to happen now.

Sir this will be played down no doubt and victims will be paid meager amount of money.

But its time US should mend its way atleast do not commit such mistakes/crimes against Pakistani public. otherwise US will never understand why Pakistani public doesnt like it much despite many welfare projects.

Money can not buy sentiments and respect. thats what US should realise by now after so many mistakes.

I absolutely agree with you here Jana Ji.

There are several important lessons for the US role in Pakistan in this unfortunate incident.

Three killed after shootout with foreigner in Pakistan​

Three people were killed after a shootout between an armed US consulate employee and two Pakistani gunmen in the eastern city of Lahore on Thursday, police and witnesses said.

The foreigner, identified by the US embassy as a consular employee in Lahore, was sitting in his car at a traffic signal when two men chasing him aboard a motorcycle opened fire.

The man returned the fire in self-defence, wounding the two attackers, who both died later in the hospital. Police said a consulate car that came to the scene later struck and killed a pedestrian.

Aslam Tarim, Lahore police chief, said in broadcast comments that the US national had been taken into custody at a police station.

Police official Omar Saeed had earlier said the man had opened fire in self-defence.

"We are investigating whether it was a robbery attempt or something else," he said.

Pakistan is a vital US ally, but anti-American sentiment runs high in the mainly Muslim nation.

Three US Special Operations soldiers were killed in a bomb attack last year in northwestern Pakistan, where militants are very active.th foreigner in Pakistan

I hang my head in shame for being a Pakistani.

Lahore has become a site of terrorist attacks, suicide bombings, you name it.

It is absurd what some of you are saying without knowing anything factually.

US Dept. of State officials are "targets" of the terrorists.

Anyone is a combat zone, which all of Paksitan has become, is entitled to defend themselves.

So, since everyone else has judged without full facts, I will do the same.

Innocent by reason of self defense from attack by terrorists who were shouting heretical epthets at the American Diplomat as they charged him with drawn guns.

Since he is a US national probably CIA he is perfectly legal to kill and crush innocent civilians on the road.

He evaded police and pulled his gun on the various police officers. He is perfectly fine to do so because is is PROOPER HUMAN with full human rights.

While the local shop keeper crushed to death by the rampage of the US CIA operative was a terrorist.

I am sure that you are smart enough to understand what I mean.

 

[LeGenD]

When will Americans and Pakistani stop fighting each other? Too much blood has been shed already in these non-sensical activities.

Are we allies or enemies?

I feel sorry for the innocent man who got crushed to death during this unfortunate incident.

As far as the American officials are concerned; They should be banned from moving freely on Pakistani roads on their will. And this official should be sent back to America.

 

[Aslan]

Also Mr. AE u have painted a picture of Pakistan that is of what you have been fed by your media, yes there are issues there is no denying that. But let me ask you this how safe are your own cities, not by the threat of terrorists. But people who are trying to rob and kill, so what do you imply every one living in US should do. Start carrying a gun I say, shoot who ever approaches him and then also run over people. No would be the answer. And that would be the right one, but you are so pathetic to defend one that even ran over an innocent man in the heist of getting away, just because he is one of you.

Excuse me? Jana is a leading journalist, most of the people here are not keyboard ninja's we all do service or are ex-service, we know well what goes on what and where.

US Dept. of State officials are "targets" of the terrorists.

Exactly and he breached the SOP that was designed for his protection and to avoid such incidents:

The majority of Consulate staff utilize the Motorpool drivers for daily driving.

-Taken from the OSAC Lahore Security Report 2010

Anyone is a combat zone, which all of Paksitan has become, is entitled to defend themselves.

Diplomat's are provided police escort from the DPD, they are allowed to use bullet proof vehicles, purchase and use CB radios, Purchase and use ballistic vests and hire private security.

Why was this guy solo?

So, since everyone else has judged without full facts, I will do the same.

Pakistani's Killed =3, American's Killed = 0. Please don't underestimate the power of sentiment. And DON'T undermine it.

Innocent by reason of self defense from attack by terrorists who were shouting heretical epthets at the American Diplomat as they charged him with drawn guns.

Where did you hear that Fox News? Please spare us the hyperbole, if you want to focus on facts then lets discuss the facts:

1. He breached the SOP
   
2. He did not heed the warden notice
   
3. He did not follow the Travel Advice laid out by the Dept. of State and BDS: https://www.osac.gov/
   
4. He fired in self defence ( to be determined)
   
5. He killed an innocent road user whilst trying to evade the angry mob ( Vehicular Manslaughter)

Either way he is Scott free, you can rest in peace. However the innocent motorcyclist who may be the only bread winner for his family, that son/brother/father will not be returning home to his loved ones today... What about them, will they see justice...

.

Sir its not Pakistani fighting Americans its Americans killing innocent locals on the roads while injuring others in there drunken rampage.
We should keep the facts straight.

i am really impressed by the way media and police is now covering up NO MENTION of the BULLET PROOF LAND CRUISER and other Gangbangers that were with this drunk driver.

surely if Pakistan is combat zone then we should treat any American caught in any activity as combatant and treat him so.

As far as these murderer American officials are concerned one should question your US state department why your officials are not following the set procedure if they are so concerned about any possible attack on them.

Lastly stop your whining and false accusation by calling victims as terrorists without any proof.

Next time any yankee creating any such scene should be treated in the same.
