The Private Police Culture in Karachi

Now a days a new menace has developed in Karachi. People who are found of being a VIP but are not a senior Government Officer or a Elected representative but have a lot of money can now travel like a Government big shot it goes beyond the Fake Government Plates scam its having your own private security guards pose as Police.



These People has gone far as giving there guards Look alike Police uniforms, badges caps, weapons and even Toyota Pickup vans which are of same color as police including revolving lights. They are usually found behind a car or SUV which has no or if it has a number plate it is always fake.



Few days ago I even saw a guard van which even had Sindh Police Sign printed on its sides and guards with look alike police uniform and even Van had a SP number plate but however I differentiated it with few minor things like the words like SPG (meant to be Sindh Police Guard ) on their shirts with strange monograms and the guard carried weapons which are not given to police and I stupid enough asked the driver of mobile (while it was next to me on a signal) that are you Police he was first stunned how could some ask him that and when he saw me in my blacks and white and a black coat hanging in back seat he confirmed my suspension that he is not Police and then I didn’t asked the next question and just speed ed away.From that day on I felt like that our country is gone to the depth of lawless ness we all feared as it is known to every one that Police Patrolling has become so rampant in Defence that there is no chance that they might have not been noted by the real Police. May Allah save us from our leaders and the rich. And I have applied for Canadian immigration. Good luck to you all.

some light on Taliban Sharia

Why the hell Taliban’s version of orthodox Islam is “limited” to women . I just don’t understand that all the time we see them enforcing Sharia by banning women from jobs, roaming around without veil and Mahrum , wearing proper clothes, adultery , punishing for adultery , just women girl , girls and women but aren’t we missing something here !!!!! what about punishing smugglers, corrupt officials, holders of wheat and other edibles , Adulterator of edibles, poppy growers , arms and drugs smugglers, car snatchers , kidnappers for ransoms. Black marketers, Black mailers , robbers, dacoits, criminals and Mobile Phone snatchers ( I would like to torch a few myself) ok for swat satellite mobile phone snatcher. So this picture is so far in my poor humble knowledge of Islam is not exactly “Islamic Code of Justice” this phenomena was also common in the Lal Masjid Clerks as well as their Students were only after brothels and girls wearing trendy stuff and they too ignored the second penal list I mentioned here, however this list is missing a lot of crimes from Pakistan Penal Code. I wonder if anyone can answer my "why" ?
