But in April 2012 the Aman Committie blamed Ch Aslam to use Muttahida people to attack Lyari.

Re: SP CID Karachi Ch Aslam killed
The fact is that this brave man treated all criminals equally above any bias.
Re: SP CID Karachi Ch Aslam killed
That's true , he was one of the three inspectors which were rabidly hated by MQM in 90s, other two being Bahadur Ali and Zeeshan Kazmi. Both were killed, he got to be very brave to continue to operate in Karachi.
I asked one of the journalist why he was spared by MQM who killed almost every police official involved in 92 operation. His response was as under besides he said that he sought forgiveness from MQM, hence apparently he was one of the very few left alive.

That is untrue, he was asked this same silly question in an interview and made it very clear that he never asked for forgiveness and never will. A couregeous person like him simply survived because he was destined to bring culprits to justice and save more lives. He was honest and not a bias officer, treated every criminal ruthlessly equally.
This is why not only TTP has benefited from his death, but also other criminals associated with parties or gangs.
Re: SP CID Karachi Ch Aslam killed
his father said in a small clip that he was looking after 150+ families of deceased police officers.
One of the family members of a officer who died in lyari operation, said he looked after their needs just like their father did.
I hope other senior officers and Sindh govt do not neglect their families and do everything to help them
Last year 170+ police officers were killed and it was the deadliest year in the history of Karachi police.
Re: SP CID Karachi Ch Aslam killed
**Heroes and villains **
While many politicians, including those in power and the cheerleaders of the Al-Qaeda-inspired Taliban, confused the issue of terrorism by calling it a foreign war and begged for talks with the enemy of the state and the people, Chaudhry Aslam was amazingly clear-headed about his mission.
*“If the state shows its scared then it loses the right to call itself the state”, he was quoted as saying in a story carried in this paper. “As long as I am alive in Karachi, I will never let that happen.”
*
In this day and age of uncertainty and muddled thinking, Chaudhry Aslam’s certainty and clarity of mind needed more than simple courage. He acted on what he believed.
Prime Minister Sharif has rightly called him courageous. **But isn’t the prime minister’s statement highly paradoxical and ironic? Why? Because the PML-N government believes in talks with an enemy that is committing brutalities against this nation almost every single day. Yet, there are politicians, including PML-N stalwarts, who are ready to forget and forgive all the heinous crimes and acts of terror committed by the Taliban. They believe in appeasing the Taliban by offering them talks and remain reluctant to fight the war against terrorism and extremism which are consuming our society from within. Should we call this policy a tribute or betrayal to the blood of our martyrs?
**
It is the extremists who are calling the shots and proactively pursuing their agenda – from attacking sensitive defence installations and killing security officials to blowing up schools, bombing places of worship and murdering polio vaccinators. But the civilian government remains directionless in confronting this life and death internal challenge faced by Pakistan.
Chaudhry Aslam is not the first officer who has been martyred in the line of duty. Sadly, he won’t be the last one either. He has been lucky that the entire nation rose to pay tribute to this brave officer. However, the sacrifices of others, who went down unsung, are no less important.
Among the recent victims, we have a 14-year-old boy from Hangu, Aitizaz Hasan. He was martyred while challenging a suicide bomber targeting his school. The list of such courageous men, women and children is long and getting longer.
**Still many politicians and religious leaders in this Islamic republic – from Imran Khan to Munawwar Hasan – have the audacity of calling this conflict a ‘foreign’ war. They mourn the deaths of terrorist kingpins like Hakeemullah Mehsud with greater emotion than the martyrdom of those killed for Pakistan.
**
How one would like to see Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan now take up the floor of parliament to condemn the martyrdom of Chaudhry Aslam and Aitizaz Hasan as he did in his emotional outburst of grief over the killing of Hakeemullah Mehsud in a US drone attack.
When the battle lines and the distinction between heroes and villains are so blurred in the minds of decision makers, **Chaudhry Aslam and the like – despite all their bravery and conviction – can only win tactical victories. The war can be lost if timid and weak leaders are in-charge. Yes, the army of lions can collapse like a bubble if the leadership is in the hands of jackals.
**
Our men-in-uniform are performing their duty with courage despite all the grey shades that have been included by our politicians in the theatre of war that is now Pakistan. The conduct of the civilian leaders offsets and undermines the courage and sacrifices of our security officials.
**Have thousands of our brave soldiers, army officers and policemen given their lives in vain if the rulers want to strike a deal with militants who want to use Pakistani territory to foment terrorism and violence within the country and across the globe? What about all those civilians killed in terrorist attacks and suicide bombings? Will their families get no justice? Will they be content that Maulana Samiul Haq and a few others like him have been assigned by the government to try to bring the Taliban on the negotiation table despite knowing that they reject Pakistan’s constitution and democracy?
**
*Compare the bravery of Chaudhry Aslam and others, who fought and died for Pakistan, with that of the PML-N leaders in the way they shrunk back from lifting the moratorium on death penalty after receiving threats from militants *wanting to save death row terror convicts from being executed.
The double-talk of trying to win a peace deal with extremists and terrorists and queuing up to express sympathy for victims of terrorism won’t work now. It is simply a self-defeatist and hypocritical approach.* It is nothing but a shameless betrayal to the blood of all our martyrs and an insult to their families and friends. These heroes need to be paid tribute to by the actions of our rulers and not by the compromises they make with their killers. Let’s fight this war to end war.
*
There are many low-income neighbourhoods that have been virtually taken over by the Taliban. The Pakhtun secular Awami National Party has long been forced to pack up its operations from these areas. More than 50 ANP workers have been killed. Here, Taliban courts now decide matters, settle disputes and collect funds. The law-enforcement agencies are unable to make their presence permanent in these localities and at best can conduct hit-and-run operations. These are the very places where killers of people like Chaudhry Aslam rest, regroup, reorganise and plan their future ventures.
Any operation against such terrorist safe havens is directly linked to the federal government’s decision on how it plans to fight or not fight this war on the broader level. The few Taliban fighters arrested here or killed there will remain fire-fighting measures in which Chaudhry Aslam’s absence will be felt a lot.

Re: SP CID Karachi Ch Aslam killed
May be. But one gentleman written a letter to the editor two years ago against his nomination for President Award, which made his image not so good. I consider that this letter is authentic and depicts a horrible truth which can not be out rightly rejected.
***August 23, 2011
Our Staff Reporter
Nominations of Presidential Awards announced on August 14 included name of a Police Officer who is generally known as corrupt, killer and dishonest person. A few years back, he brutally killed an innocent person namely Rasool Bux Brohi and wrongly claimed it body of Mashooq Ali Brohi (a criminal) in order to get head money. Such reports in details were extensively covered by the press at that time. Finally, the Supreme Court of Pakistan also took notice of his killing and he was behind the bars. His record is reportedly full of corruption and dishonesty and he remained behind the bars and under suspension more than once. Awarding Presidential Award to a killer, corrupt and dishonest Police Officer with criminal record is insult to the prestigious Award. I appeal to the President Asif Ali Zardari to take back such nomination and order strict action against those who recommended prestigious Award to Police Officer with criminal record. MOHAMMAD KHAN SIAL, Karachi, August 21.***
Same gentleman revealed a horrible story of torture and killing of an innocent person to claim blood money.
Re: SP CID Karachi Ch Aslam killed
I don't see any reason why we are digging old stories, when this man is no more and the fact remains that he was a rare breed of a honest and courageous police officer, which for some people was hard to digest, he had fake encounters allegations against him, but nothing was proven against him, so let's leave at that.
