Mystery ‘fish’ on Karachi beach is a bad omen, say locals – The Express Tribune

KARACHI: A mystery ‘fish’ was found on Clifton beach on Monday, drawing hundreds of eager onlookers.
The dead fish-like creature was found early morning during a low tide by locals, who alerted local police due to the strange nature of the carcass.
Security officials cordoned off the area, but a large crowd gathered to see the fish, creating a carnival-like atmosphere on the beach front.
“This fish is amazing. It has no face…where does it eat from?” asked Allah Ditta, a local resident.
Others looked upon the four-eyed fish creature as a bad omen for the city, or perhaps Pakistan. Some citizens said the fish was a sign that the upcoming elections would be delayed, or massive rigging would take place — at least in the locale the fish creature was found.
Former Head of the Ministry of Local Fisheries and Aquatic Exploration, Azaad Muqam said the fish was likely the result of a mutation. He dismissed all rumours of the fish creature being a bad omen.
“A fish with four eyes and no mouth is not going to impact the elections…we are working hard towards free and fair polls, and if anything, extra eyes should be seen as a sign of greater scrutiny and transparency at the polls,” Muqam said in a media briefing.
Local media report the fish’s carcass is likely to be on display for the rest of the day as large crowds have gathered to see the new local attraction. It is also reported that the fish-creature may be preserved and displayed next to the carcass of the whale shark at the Pakistan Museum of Natural History.

Anything away from the regular is considered a bad omen.. why not a good omen ?

The size and condition of the toe conjoined fish looks as if fully capable of sustenance and growth. With no snout its cant breathe let alone eat.\

I think its just photoshop.

I think it goes on to expose the negative personality and cynical thinking of us Pakistanis in general. Lets say I like M, this can be interpreted as I am in love with M, I like M or if the mind tries to find idiotic reason for its stupidity it may think I am acting like I like M and I hate it in reality.

So one event can be looked at in many different ways. On the topic I will say that this is a welcome discovery but the same mind that makes sad little dramas on Pakistani television is at work here. It does not see the positive, the reality-it sees only the negative.

This is just a fish... but our country does not deserve the pathetic minds that believe they are everything.

The fish is too small to be considered a bad omen.
