I have to give it to the CID. They have eliminated terrorists left and right in Karachi and I am sure the CID had a role here too. I believe no department or intelligence agency has done so well against the Taliban and other terrorists as the CID. Its struggle to eliminate terrorism is something to be honored.

Aslam Chaudhry the head of the ATS of the CID is a man who has sacrificed much in the war against terrorism. We need to eliminate the terrorists utterly. We have to find a way to shut down TTP or the Pakistani Taliban permanently. We can do it but we need political will to combat terrorism.

Again thanks to the Karachi police and CID which netted a major Taliban network in the city of Karachi. They have foiled the plans of evil militants.
 
Terrorist organizations like the TTP have left very little to ponder in regards to their terrorist agenda. Thousands of innocent people have fallen victim to their atrocities in Pakistan alone. It is easy to see that they have stepped up their terrorist activities in the city of Karachi. The need of the hour is to send a stern message to these repeat offenders. The law and order must preside in order to restore peace in the city. We commend the brave security personnel who are working night and day to end violence in the city. It is simply in our best interest to see a safe and secure Pakistan. We cannot have a safe and secure region without a safe and secure Pakistan. We fully support the government of Pakistan and stand united in regards to our peace objectives in the region.
