Good job Rangers...

THere has been a visible increase in Rangers ops in troubled areas of Karachi since the last week or so.

Well done!

If weapons found than they should execute the terrorists instead of detaining, no need to waste time & resources for prosecution. Only suspects should be given chance of trail.

I was going to ask the same question why the 26 suspected militants, including three activists of (proscribedLEJ) outfits were taken into custody and not just shot and killed.

Probably they don't want that people start saying that Punjabi Army is doing genocide. Ask govt. to pass order of shoot at sight - they will surely oblige.

 

[EagleEyes]

More of these eliminated from Pakistan, the better Pakistan will be.

Can't wait for peace and tourism in the country. *Dreams*

This would bring Army under bashing by 'Human Rights' groups. I fail to understand why are the miscreants eligible for Human rights? Ironic, isn't it?

To disappoint you, these sentiments are held by some people.

News are also coming in of the capture of Alam Sher Mehsood, the Chief of TTP Karachi. He was captured from "Khuda ki Basti" along with 3 other of his comrades.

All of these Jeehades should be taken out in targetted ops without trial.
Why was malik ishaq spared a bullet to his head?

 

[KRAIT]

Good riddance. No arrest, no trial, just a bullet to the head.
