Karsaz tragedy

The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) commemorated the martyrs of 18th Oct by a candle-light vigil and paid rich tributes to the martyrs by raising slogans in praise of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto who scarified her life for the right of the downtrodden citizen of Pakistan.

The question which still needs to be answered about Karsaz tragedy is why the PPP government, for the past four years, has been unable to find and punish the mastermind behind this bloody carnage?

Who were those who executed the plan of killing Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto by suicides attacks or planted bombs? Who has benefited after the death of Benazir Bhutto? Why did the government stop the commission of Justice Ghous, who was investigating the incident which killed 185 innocent workers of PPP on duty to protect their leader? Why is the PPP government reluctant to find the truth about this incident?

Is the lighting of a few candles the best tribute the PPP government can pay these victims? Why have the president and the prime minister not addressed the nation to pay due respect to their chairperson. It is only due to their sacrifice that they are in present position. Perhaps, we as a nation don’t want to know the truth about our leader’s mystery killing?
