Re: Looters/Deciots in Sindh were probably PML[Q]/MQM people
More than 28 shops in Shahi bazaar and 18 shops in Resham bazaar were also looted along with other shops on the main roads. One eyewitness told The News that flag-waving PPP workers came and forced the shops to close, and then some others moved in to wreak havoc. Locals did not recognise them as PPP workers. The men chanted slogans of ‘Jeay Bhutto’ and burnt and looted the shops. Police arrested three persons after shopkeepers identified them but they were freed after some ‘understanding’.
One example, why were those ppl released if they were 'caught'? Also, the fact taht they were carrying PPP flags while going on vandal sprees just shows that it was a drama.

In Hyderabad and Hala, property of PPP supporters was also damaged and looted. A majority of the victims were Sindhi-speaking.

Despite the concerted efforts of certain elements in spreading ethnic hatred in Sindh, non-Sindhi speaking people by and large also termed these tactics as being against the solidarity of the country.

Dilber Khan, an ethnic Pakhtoon and vice president of the damaged Light House market in Karachi, said Sindhis were generally peace-loving people and he was not afraid of them. Talking to The News at the Light House bazaar, where more than 10 shops were burnt during the violence, he rejected the stories of ethnic hatred being a motive for the strife saying he had lived in the interior of Sindh and found the Sindhi people as patriotic as anyone else in this country. In fact, Khan said that locals, including Sindhis, helped them in controlling the fire.
