Three suspects killed in 'encounters'
2014-06-12
[DAWN] KARACHI: Three suspects were rubbed out in two separate alleged encounters in Mauripur and Orangi Town on Tuesday, according to officials.

In Mauripur, a wanted criminal was bumped off. Police said that acting on a tip-off they raided an alleged hideout of gangsters near Chawal Godam in the Mauripur area, where in an ensuing encounter a suspect identified as Jamal, alias Lambu, was killed.
Oboy. Now that, my dears, is efficient reporting. By the numbers, then:
1. On the map. You may need an electron microscope to find it, but by law, it must be there.
2. The police didn't mean to. It was forced upon them by the precipitious action of the miscreant and his gang pf gangsters.
3. *ring ring* "Mahmoud the Weasel, here. The miscreants are meeting in their proletarian hide-out. Leave the payment under the rock as usual. I'll send Mahmoud the Weasel IV to pick it up. His sister, Suzy-Aisha, needs her teeth straightened, so that'll come in handy."
4. "Hark, my Spidey Sense is tingling. Commence random firing, O ye bandits!"
5. "Shall we return fire, Sarge?"
"Yes, you idiot! But two shots only -- dear little Lambu here only has two ears to be hit behind."
6. Yes, he was magically found dead on the spot, afterward. And his comrades equally magically disappeared as if they'd never been.
He belonged to the Comrade Sheeraz gang
Oho! We've got Commie gangs in West Pakistan, too. Things are looking up in the old encounter biz.
of Lyari
...one of the eighteen constituent towns of the city of Karachi. It is the smallest town by area in the city but also the most densely populated. Lyari has few schools, substandard hospitals, a poor water system, limited infrastructure, and broken roads. It is a stronghold of ruling Pakistan Peoples Party. Ubiquitous gang activity and a thriving narcotics industry make Lyari one of the most disturbed places in Karachi, which is really saying a lot....
and was wanted in several criminal cases.
On twelve planets, in fact.
The provincial government had announced Rs300,000 million for his arrest.
But there was no arrest, so this efficient little partial newspaper article is all that will be disbursed.
In Orangi Town, two suspected robbers were rubbed out.
See numbers, above.
The suspects shot at and maimed a man, Kamran Aslam, on resistance of a robbery attempt in Chishti Nagar. Area people put up resistance
Oh dear. It's always bad for the bad guys when the citizenry is aroused. Very often iron bars are deployed. The coppers are kinder.
and, in the meantime, a police party also reached there, said Iqbal Market SHO Ghulam Rasool Rajpar. In the ensuing shootout, two suspects were killed. The dead were identified as Noor Alam and Zahoor.
As a mere one-namer, he was the henchman, of course.
The police claimed to have found two pistols and a cycle of violence in their custody.
Both to be lovingly cleaned and polished by the newest member of the force, then returned to the evidence room until the next time they're needed.
Kamran who sustained bullet wounds in the leg was shifted to the Abbasi Shaheed Hospital for treatment.
"Dr. Quincy, Dr. Quincy, we've got a live one!"
"Nope. He's dead, Jim. Note the noticeable lack of breathing and the bits of shattered blood and brains and bone where the completely random bullets exited after entering once behind each ear. We'll never find them, I'm afraid."
