Re: Justice for Shahzaib Khan

@Silaaj

With due respect to Shahzaib Khan, he too comes from a privileged background. This is a fight between 2 influential parties. Shahzaib’s father is a DSP, hence all the noise. This brings us back to the same set of questions again and again, that every Pakistani is asking.
Noise is made only when a media worthy photo-op is present. Deadly gang rape, murder of a privileged kid, injury to a public figure. Any thing that has the ability to score TRPs is made into headline news.
What about the countless other innocents who are killed on a daily basis? They dont have a voice because they dont belong to influential families, or because the media couldnt get ratings out of them.

With politically appointed police forces, this is what you get. These waderas will get full protection in interior sindh, because the police over there belongs to the feudals. Why cant the CJ take suo moto notice of these appointments, and order a full cleansing of the entire police force? Why doesnt he take action to affect a broader segment of the public, rather than take suo motos on individual cases? Does he have that much time on his hands?
Time is wasted on taking suo motos on individual cases, while the public at large continues to suffer. Anyone who has dealt with the police knows how difficult it is to get an FIR registered, even for a murder, let alone robbery or something small. This cancer exists in entire Pakistan, and a complete cleanup of our police force is necessary, if we are ever to hope for broad based justice. If police was independent, these 2 murderers would have been arrested on the spot.

The most surprising thing is civil society in karachi demonstrating…
They wake up from slumber for only this incident; we see no demonstration from very next/previous target killing incident.
