  1. Karachi was a peaceful cosmopolitan city not long ago. It was genuinely called as a 'city of lights'. There were no target killings, extortion and blackmailing. Since scum of the earth Altaf Hussain founded his party with approval of moron Zia and the 'deep state' a curse has been inflicted on the city. The city is now dying slow death due to unabated thuggish activities directed from London. For how long he will continue play with the lives of innocent people?? Asif Zardari has proved to be a coward leader who capitulates without hesitation to blackmailer par excellence Altaf Hussain.

    The sad story will continue until the government to be formed in near future takes drastic and painful decisions to hammer the thug who is directing his puppets in Karachi to destroy peace.
