  1. PPP is so Hypocrat that it is “running with the hare and hunting with the hounds”…

    The crime rate in Karachi has increased manifold ever since PPP rose to power in 2008 as its leaders like AbdulQadir Patel and Zulfiqar Mirza have been patronizing the organised criminals of Lyari gangs to indulge in extortions, target killings, car jackings, qabza mafia etc…

    If PPP & it’s inherited leader Zardari are sincere to the people of Karachi, they must abandon the gangsters and help the law enforcement agencies in bringing these criminals to justice.

    This is the first time that Rangers have conducted killed a high-profile criminal and this has become possible only when PMLN government has took over the federal government and made Rnagers independent of political influence.

    When the criminals are caught their patrons & supporters should also caught for aiding in crime.
