Pakistani police described the guy as working in the development sector so it is not that he was up to no good.

In light of recent events, i would doubt that he is working on some development projects, unless it is related to promote terrorism and anarchy, just for you info, the other day, there was small news item in one of the news papers quoting political agent of FATA that, since there is restriction on the movements of US consulate members, the number of terror incidents have gone down…

In any case, there is something known as a precedent. If a white guy can be kidnapped in the middle of a posh area in one of the few cities in Pakistan where the government does exercise some degree of control then that hardly sends a good signal to any foreign visitor, including investors abroad considering investing in Pakistan.

Currently, Pakistan is considered as war zone in investment world so there is no investor ( apart from Chinese, who are often kidnapped) willing to invest… secondly the white-guys should know that this is no good time for them to come here, they are the one who have turned the region into hell and no one is going to have sympathy with this white guy no matter what…

Just as the attack on Sri Lankan cricket team spelled all but an end to international cricket in Pakistan, kidnappings like this can be very detrimental for Pakistan’s prospects of attracting foreign investment. Because to invest, investors first need to visit Pakistan. And it is very likely that they won’t if there is no reasonable guarantee that they will be able to return in one piece.

Aren’t you taking it bit to far, i suggest watching CNN and FOX news is good but taking everything they have said as word of god is bad…
