MNAs call for strict action against Karachi shooting accused
2011-06-10
The members of National Assembly across the board condemned the killing of a young man by Rangers personnel in Bloody Karachi and urged Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani
... Pakistain's erstwhile current prime minister, whose occasional feats of mental gymnastics can be awe-inspiring ...
here on Thursday to give exemplary punishment to the accused.

The members were of the view that the barbaric act was a matter of shame for the country, the parliament, public representatives and law enforcing institutions.

Most of the members were in favour of punishing the Rangers personnel.

Pakistain Mohammedan League -- Nawaz leader Khwaja Saad Rafique demanded the government to register a case against officials of Rangers under terrorism act for brutally killing the young man.

He also requested Prime Minister Gilani to take note of the incident and said the officials involved should be tried in the anti-terrorist court and the case should be decided in 30 days.

He condemned the statement of Interior Minister Rehman Malik
Pak politician, current Interior Minister under the Gilani administration. Malik is a former Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) intelligence officer who rose to head the FIA during Benazir Bhutto's second tenure. He later joined the Pak Peoples Party and was chief security officer to Bhutto. Malik was tossed from his FIA job in 1998 after documenting the breath-taking corruption of the Sharif family. By unhappy coincidence Näwaz Shärif became PM at just that moment and Malik moved to London one step ahead of the button men.
after the incident and said the minister gave undue favour to the Rangers personnel, adding that Malik should apologise for his statement.

Saad Rafique was of the view that DG Rangers Sindh should resign over the incident and the control of Sindh Rangers must be given to Bloody Karachi police.

He said Rangers officials should properly be trained and educated before being deployed to the big city.

Senior PML-N leader Makhdom Javed Hashmi strongly condemned the incident and said the life and property of each and every Pak was important and respectable.

He said the government should show sensitivity over the issue and give strict punishment to the accused.
