Lyari operation in Karachi

Re: Lyari operation in Karachi

The score:

Zulfiqar Mirza's criminal gangs in Lyari: 1
Zardari: 0
PPP: 0
Karachi: 0
Sindh: 0
Pakistan: **0

**
Looks like police had no idea about the weapons Mirza had distributed among the criminals there. Now it needs bigger planning and more resources to get rid of those warlords.

seems like the government is waiting for other towns to turn into lyari as well :(

Re: Lyari operation in Karachi

Lyari consists of TWO communities: Makrani Baloch and Kutchhi Memon. Both supported PPP in every election. And since both voted for PPP therefore ALL Lyari was considered a PPP stronghold.
Now Lyari's two communities Kutchhis and Makranis are bitterly divided. It is because Mirza armed Makrani Baloch PAC alone, and it terrorized not only Karachi in general but also Kutchhis. Therefore Kutchhis had been demanding action against PAC since long.

So at this moment whether PPP support Baloch's PAC or Kutchhis, the other one is going to be unhappy anyway.
In other words, PPP's votebank will be lost in Lyari one way or the other.

Break in Lyari operation should not be taken as weakness: Qaim | DAWN.COM
KARACHI: Chief Minister Sindh Syed Qaim Ali Shah on Saturday said that miscreants in Lyari should not consider the temporary halt in the operation as our weakness, DawnNews reported.
Speaking to police officials at the Police Headquarters Karachi along with Federal Interior Minister Rehman Malik, Shah praised the courage of policemen for participating in the grand operation against the armed criminals in the troubled area of the metropolis.
He said that the “pause” in the operation was just a step back and should not be considered as our weakness.
Speaking on the occasion, Malik said the only purpose behind the operation was to capture just a handful of terrorists fighting against the security forces. “I salute to those policemen who sacrificed their lives for peace and stability in the area,” said the interior minister.
He pointed out that Rocket Propelled Grenades (RPGs) and steal bullets were used against the security forces in Lyari. “Innocent people do not carry anti-aircraft guns,” he added.

Re: Lyari operation in Karachi

Can you summarize his point of view here?
It is ridiculous to make an angel out of a criminal gangster.


All I know is that Uzair Baloch is head of PAC, which is banned due to its involvement in terrorist activities all across the city.
And this is why I am surprised to see Nawaz Sharif supporting his criminal gang only due to political expediency. What Nawaz is showing is that to him getting votebank is more important than peace in Karachi. Very similar to him sending Rana Sanaullah to attend Sipahe Sahaba’s rally to garner their support.

PML-N invites Uzair Baloch to join party

**KARACHI: **The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Sindh president, Ghous Ali Shah, announced on Friday that a formal invitation has been extended to the Peoples Amn Committee (PAC) leader, Uzair Baloch, to join the party.

“Baloch has responded positively and we are hoping that he will accept the offer,” Shah informed the media after the PML-N Sindh council’s meeting at the Muslim League House on Friday.

Re: Lyari operation in Karachi

I don't think operation was a bad idea. Only the execution was terrible. And it was terrible because the police failed to realize how much well-armed those gangsters had become. They were firing rockets and hand grenades on armored police vehicles.

Our support shouldn't lie with enemies of people of Lyari and Karachi ... just because we hate one person. Isn't it?

Re: Lyari operation in Karachi

And this makes Uzair Baloch an angel?!
It is not just Rehman Malik blaming Uzair Baloch. It is the whole government. Making it a dispute between Uzair and Rehman Malik is false.

Re: Lyari operation in Karachi

Few people MIGHT be involved? Few people ARE involved. One of them is Uzair Baloch, the head of PAC. And this is why this operation was conducted.

You are trying to make it a Rehman Malik issue, when actually it is more than just Rehman Malik. PAC is a criminal outfit of Mirza and is involved in extreme extortion, murders and kidnappings all across the city. Uzair Baloch is its head.
Now how is it related to Rehman Malik?

Also, Asma Jahangir also called Amn Committe a bhatta wing of PPP. Is she also following Malik?

Peoples Amn Committee is the ‘Extortion Committee’ of PPP : Asma Jahangir

**If Uzair Baloch is an innocent victim then what were the rockets, and hand grenades doing in Lyari?
**He is a criminal gangster. He is the head of PAC. Are you unaware of what PAC has done in the past? Do you want me to tell some of their activities?

The whole Lyari is not against PPP. Only people who support criminal activities of PAC are against PPP.

Re: Lyari operation in Karachi

That’s preposterous.
You are making it look like the operation was started after PAC left PPP. But actually PAC left PPP after the operation was announced.

Uzair Jan Baloch declared on Saturday that the banned People’s Aman Committee was severing all ties with the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) “for good”.

With the operation set to “go on till all criminals are arrested,” as claimed by IG Sindh Mushtaq Shah in an interview, …

The cracks in PPP and Lyari’s ‘love-hate’ relationship started appearing as an operation aimed at uprooting criminals was initiated earlier in the month and resulted in the death of a wanted criminal named Saqib.

Re: Lyari operation in Karachi

Not another Kerbala!

Re: Lyari operation in Karachi

Well, the operation was stopped so that people could get food and water.
So yes, it is not Kerbala. Don't worry.

But it shouldn't be another Waziristan either!

Nawaz Sharif’s and Zulfiqar Mirza’s “innocent” criminals:

Six killed as Lyari gangsters resort to extortion spree - thenews.com.pk
At least six people, including two members of a Lyari gang war group, were killed in a violent clash that erupted in the Kalri area late on Monday night and continued till Tuesday morning. No arrests were made.According to police sources, some members of a Lyari gang war group (Baba Ladla), including Ali alias Alooq Gawaderi, entered the Kalri area late on Monday night to extort money from residents. When they came to a Paan shop on Shah Waliullah Road in Juna Kalri, the shop owner, who is also a member of the Kuchhi Rabita Committee, started shouting for help. His supporters soon came to him to resolve the matter, but in the meantime the gangsters opened indiscriminate fire, triggering a gun battle.During the crossfire, some passers-by suffered injuries and were taken to the Civil Hospital and the Lyari General Hospital.In the meanwhile, more members from the gangster group entered the area and the clash took a violent turn, during which Abdul Rehman Hingoro suffered serious injuries while parking his vehicle at a nearby place. He, however, died on his way to hospital. The deceased was a producer at a private TV channel and resident of Hingorabad, Kalri.The gangsters also kidnapped Illahi Bux, the owner of a medical store on Shahwaliullah Road, later tortured him to death and dumped his body near the Kalri Cinema. The deceased was a resident of Nayabad, Kalri.


Sher Shah massacre:
Extortion rackets squeezing the trigger in target killings – The Express Tribune
KARACHI: After relying solely on conjecture and vague theories of ethno-political warring, the Shershah scrap market incident has provided pivotal insight into the phenomenon of target killings, which have claimed a staggering 1,043 lives from January to September this year. This number does not include the 80-odd deaths in October.
Background interviews with police and market officials by The Express Tribune suggest that the incident, in which a dozen gunmen launched a brazen attack that claimed the lives of 13 innocent men,
took place after failed ‘negotiations’ between an extortion group and the Shershah market association.

The negotiations, which took place between a gang that reigns supreme in neighbouring Lyari and the market association’s president, were over the imposition of new extortion rates — which were rejected by the association that was reportedly already frustrated after paying enough to other quarters ruling over neighbouring Baldia.
The meeting ended, somewhat expectedly, with the gang issuing dire threats to the market association’s president. On Tuesday evening, a brazen attack was launched in the market, in which 13 people were killed.
Contrary to some reports, the killings were up close and specific — and not random. More tellingly, of the 13 victims, five were from one family — the family of the secretary-general of the same Shershah market association that had rejected demands for a new extortion regime in one of the biggest scrap markets in the region, with about 8,000 shops.
The secretary-general lost his brother-in-law, two nephews and two grandsons in what was initially called ‘random firing’ by a dozen or so attackers. The FIR lodged on Thursday nominates Lyari gang members led by Baba Ladla, who run their own crippling extortion racket in Lyari, further giving credence to this report.

*Murder sparks protests against Lyari extortionists - thenews.com.pkMurder sparks protests against Lyari extortionistsA violent clash erupted between two groups in a Lyari neighbourhood late on Friday night, leaving a Kuchhi Rabita Committee (KRC) member dead and several others injured.Following the incident, angry KRC activists protested on several major thoroughfares of the city as well as in front of the Chief Minister House on Saturday morning, demanding action against the criminal elements.
According to police and residents,
Lyari gangsters had taken over the Nayabad area a few weeks back and started kidnapping children passing through Shah Abdul Latif Bhittai Road for ransom
.The gangsters also extorted money from traders and committed street crime in the area. This situation compelled the Kuchhi community to erect barriers in the inner lanes of their area. However, this development infuriated the gangsters, who launched attacks on them and the KRC office late on Friday night.

Re: Lyari operation in Karachi

Uzair is not an angel, on the other hand the problem of the whole city is not due to him alone. The killings and extortions take place every where, the operation if carried out needs to be across the board (i dont see yhat happening hence i think its just a hogwash)and targeted so that ordinary people are not targeted like what was done in the previous one.
