Its sad and ironic that instead of implementing the court order, police is protecting the illegal blockage. this is how politicize police is.

We're only reinforcing the stereotype that all we're good for are protests & tantrums !
We must plan these things in advance so that it does not come across as being us living issue-to-issue.
The Bilawal House issue, though the wall needs to be demolished, is much farther down in the pecking order than other issues that are gripping Karachi right now !
If PTI had protested the NATO Supplies being unloaded at the Karachi Port - I would've understood it to be a part of a wider policy of disrupting the NATO Supply & the logical progression of the action in KP, parts of Baluchistan & hopefully protests in Punjab as well !
But this just came out of the blue without any significant relevance to it !

I disagree @Armstrong. This is not just a stunt. This is in line with PTI's image as a pro-justice party. I support them in this. If I were in Karachi, I would be there with them. This is actually how politics is practiced in Pakistan. Moreover, in a tough city like Karachi there is hardly any other way of raising profile of PTI. One can not expect them to do what others do; make an armed wing and have it support itself by bhatta-khori.

This is a status quo which people of Pakistan must recognize and demolish.
Wall might be just a symbol of this status quo and feudal party but people must understand the broader ramification.
Those who dont recognize a law of the country are jailed. This cabal of politicians whom we cant even call leaders dont recognize any law. They are not example on which we can raise our children.
PTI will not be able to demolish this wall. But if people understand and recognize the faces who suppress their rights, then the wall that separates the rulers and the ruled will be demolished. The symbol will then be insignificant.
Driving around Bilawal House, I always thought, 'if this woman wants to be our leader how and from where did she build such a huge house?' A common sense question if you dont let yourself clouded with a sentiment. A sentiment that does not benefit the common people.

KARACHI: The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) plans to hold a protest aimed at bringing down the security wall around Bilawal House ended with baton-charges, scuffles and bruises for the party on Sunday.
Police blocked all roads leading to the Bhutto residence to prevent protesters from reaching the protest site. Consequently, PTI protesters gathered near Boat Basin to carry out their protest.
Later in the day, PPP supporters came out in large numbers and a scuffle broke out between the two highly charged parties. Police officials also resorted to baton-charging the protesters to prevent them advancing on Bilawal House.
A number of political party activists from both parties were picked up during the protest.
Both PPP and PTI leaders lashed out at each other for the day’s violent end.

Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) workers allegedly attacked Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) activists who were protesting at Karachi’s Boat Basin against the wall around Bilawal House.
The supporters of both parties threw stones at each other and the clash turned violent. Police baton-charged the protesters, arrested many and took them to an unknown location.
PTI supporters were protesting in the area when a large number of PPP workers arrived in the area and reportedly led the attack on protesters.
Roads leading to and from Bilawal House in Karachi were earlier blocked with containers for security reasons in view of the protest.
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) had called for a protest to demolish the wall surrounding the Bilawal House today and the supporters were due to gather at the Bilawal Chowrangi at 1pm for the demonstration.
Because of the blockade, PTI MNA Arif Alvi asked supporters to congregate at Boat Basin instead.
According to traffic police, DIG South Abdul Khaliq Sheikh ordered the blockade.
A heavy contingent of police officers was also deployed in the area, while a water cannon was put on standby.
The Sindh government had earlier opened one side of the thoroughfare for the public as news of PTI protest spread. However, today, the roads were blocked again with containers and water tankers.
On Friday evening, the situation had turned tense between the PPP and PTI as some people pushed Alvi and others hit Zaman’s car, as the PTI leaders led a protest near Bilawal House.
According to Alvi, who won the NA-250 constituency in the general elections, they wanted their protest to remain peaceful and wanted to avoid any confrontation, which is why they left the site.
Alvi said that the protest is not only for one day but will continue till the walls are brought down and the road leading to Bilawal House is opened for commuters.
Workers of the PPP, however, consider opening the roads as a threat to the safety of their leaders.
