| Tut tut. And tut. [DAWN] STOCK-TAKING is under way in the wake of Tuesday's suicide kaboom in Lahore which ended five precious lives. The incident was followed by yet another bombing at an imambargah a day later on the outskirts of Islamabad. In Lahore, a bigger, more devastating incident was avoided since the attacker was apparently unable to reach his target; yet, significantly, the bomber escaped notice and managed to reach the gate of the police lines that should have been one of the most protected places in the city and is a very obvious target. The recent incidents of terror which have come in quick succession have caused much unease across the country, and are enough reason for law-enforcers brought together by the National Action Plan to review measures, reaffirm their resolve and consolidate their efforts to root out militancy. For the sum to be meaningful, each part must first be fully empowered and committed to the job. |
