PPP MNA armed men thrash soldiers, snatch weapons

[Safriz]

KARACHI:
Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) lawmaker Tariq Masood Arain and 20 others were booked on Tuesday for attacking army men deployed for the Karachi corps commander’s security and snatching their weapons.

Hawaldar Fahimullah Jan, who serves with Karachi Corps Commander Lt General Shahid Baig Mirza, complained to the Darakhshan police that over a dozen armed men thrashed him and two other soldiers, Arif and Ali Jan, on September 16 on Khayaban-e-Mujahid in Defence Housing Authority, Karachi.
Fahimullah said the soldiers and driver Muhammad Altaf were escorting the family of the Karachi corps commander when at around 11pm, a silver vehicle carrying four men tried to break into the convoy.

The entourage stopped the vehicle for checking and two of its occupants identified themselves as Moon and Asad.

One of them called a person named Tariq, who sent two vehicles carrying 15 to 18 men armed with guns to the scene.

Fahimullah identified one of the vehicles as a black Toyota Land Cruiser bearing registration number DJ-2222.

He added that the armed men thrashed them and threatened to kill them. They also snatched two official weapons from the army personnel.

The soldiers then went to the Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre and later to the police station to lodge a complaint.

The FIR read that armed men manhandled Fahimullah and his colleagues on the directives of the PPP MPA Tariq Masood Arain from PS-24 Nawabshah as they were his guards.

The Express Tribune tried to reach Arain, however, he could not be reached.

اب یہ دن بھی دیکھنا تھا کہ پاکستانی فوجیوں کو چند سندھی بدمعاشوں نے کٹ لگا دی

The Army is trying to be politically correct. So they need valid legal reasons to arrest the corrupt leaders. As long as this Tariq Masood Arain is arrested, I am happy.

I am also happy because if these idiots start threatening the safety of top army generals, the army WILL take decisive action, Insha Allah.

This last part is admittedly provocative, but I feel it needs to be said. Let's not wait for something equivalent to APS (Allah Forbid) to take decisive action. @django @Irfan Baloch @Horus

Well 15-20 Armed Men with Automatic Rifles vs a company of 5-6 Soldiers in Urban Terrain who were escorting a Family. It was foolish to retaliate at the spot. Rival death would've given Liberals and Surkh Salam Walay Afrad another chance to defame our troops. But revenge must be taken. Drag these Rich Sindhi goons out of their locations and beat the shit out of them.

A Sindhi Citizen.

Their has to be some serious consequences, we cannot have the Jawans of this nation get manhandled by some third rate political goons, I suspect even their backers will start to distance themselves from these clowns as no one wishes to draw the wrath of the most effective institution in the land.Kudos sir

No doubt these goons have taken over the whole Sindh. Their Children into Prados and Lexus Vehicles wearing a Shalwar wider than Tamboo play Gods around the roads and vicinity. It's time to hit them hard to let them know how law acts.

Strict retaliation policy is authorized to troops in case of Weapon Snatch. But they were outnumbered and were convoying Core Comd's family. It was utterly foolish to open fire at that time.

but consider if they were ttp terrorists outnumbering soldier then it was wise to die while encountering them than to get kidnapped and beheaded.soldiers should be trained and equiped with weapons to fight outnumbering enemy

That's a different situation. It's called surrendering and I do not support it. Better to fight till death but there was a Family at stake. Opening fire would've encouraged the thugs to take every second as an opportunity to manipulate the case.

No one is the king. Neither the Generals nor Politicians. Lets just follow the Law like a Civilized Society.

there should be effective and quick communication ;coordination and logistic support between soldier.this incident shows that coordination between ppp gang was stronger than army as army men fail to call more soldiers for support but ppp men were successful in that.army should learn from it
