Attack on Srilankan cricket team in Lahore

[Bull]

This one has INDIAN RAW involvement written all over it! The attackers were typically in their teens and were also carrying grenades etc. They fired AK-47's in a very ''all-out'' fashion with the aim to create the deliberate scare and international incident. Too bad the INDIANS have chosen to involve the Sri Lankan sportsmen in this and now it high time that our Government should clearly point the finger where the blame lies......i.e INDIA!

Proof, dude.

We should not point fingers at anyone unless proper investigation is carried out, btw Tamil Tigers are the ones I think behind this attack as mentioned by some anaylysts.

CNN reports 2 players in ICU, while other news agencies say they are out of danger and are back in hotel.

SL Sports minister says, incident unfortunate but we dont repend, we are friendly nation, and we were showing solidarity with them as they visited us in 90's when everybody backed out...CNN

A rocket launcher also was found, which probably wasnt used. Or else things would have been much worse.

A eyewitness said that the gunmen wanted to take over the bus and kill all SriLankans but the Elite Police showed very good response in return and they ran away

Well i dont think so, worser things have happened. Munich olympics.French engineers blast. We all suffer from memory loss, 2 years down the line and things would be back to normal.

'It was a terrorist attack and the terrorists used rocket launchers, hand grenades and other weapons,' Rehman said, adding that the police were hunting down the attackers who managed to flee. 'Our police sacrificed their lives to protect the Sri Lankan team.'

Well if they have managed to flee, the chances of catching them alive would increase and that would be good news.

Its a despicable act. Why would anyone attack their guests? I have personally known Pathan and Punjabi hospitality, yes here in India! .....this atrocity is insane.

I hate to say this but I love the aggressive spirit of Pakistani cricketers on the field. It would be a shame if that goes for a toss with such incidents.


RIP to the cops and service personnel.
