The assassination of Dr. Imran Farooq may have happened in the
British capital of London, the retaliation would be felt in the Karachi
city of Pakistan. As the MQM and ANP and PPP are indulged in target
killing of each other in Karachi, this new twist in the bloody tale is
going to cost Karachi numerous lives and damage to property. The loss to
the economy of country is uncountable.
Already, in Karachi city, the public transport has vanished from the
roads and people who are returning from half way as they were going to
their offices and businesses. Shops and businesses are closed and all
markets are silent. Schools and colleges have called it a day even
before their proper start, and kids are returning to their homes. The
petrol pumps and the CNG stations have been closed down.
Though the coordination committee of MQM has called for peace and
restraint, but already many parts of the city are hearing firing, and
things are turning dark. The city government and the provincial
government must at once call the rangers in the city and deploy them in
all the chowrangis and they must not wait for some corpses to come to
wake them up.
Karachi is an unfortunate city.
