Emergency has been imposed and police and law enforcement agencies have been put on high alert in Lahore.
May the planners/financiers and facilitators die a humiliating death.
They won't. Only if I were president, I would have brought these scums to task. I lived in lahore for a decade, and it hurts to hear these news coming out of there (or anywhere in pak).
