Security Agency's Role Against Criminals
13 June, 2005
My world is lost", says a shocked Naeem Khan Jadoon, a postman whose 8-year old son, Zeeshan was abducted, molested and later strangulated by unknown culprits on June 7, in New Karachi, a suburban locality of Karachi.
Karachi police on an anonymous call found the charred body of Zeeshan wrapped in a gunny bag. The autopsy report revealed that the boy was earlier brutally molested and later strangulated. Naeem Khan Jadoon told the newsmen that his son had disappeared on Sunday, June 5, but when he went to lodge a FIR in this regard, the area police asked him " go and search your son yourself". He said the duty police officer instead of lodging the FIR, had only noted down the name of his son on a paper, and said if he found any clue to his missing son, he would let him know. " They (police) did find clue to my son, but not before he was killed", Jadoon said. No action has so far been taken against the police officers who had refused to register the FIR on the request of Mr. Jadoon. Security agencies claim to have broken the "backbone" of "Al Qaeda terrorists", but the ever-increasing incidents of murder, kidnap for ransom and other street crimes, compel the people of Pakistan to think that if security agencies can arrest the high profile "terrorists" like Abu Zubaida, Khaled Shaikh Mohammed and Abul Faraj, then why can’t they break the backbone of these ordinary criminals? Probably its not there priority.
Q-1 Security agencies have been successful against "Al Qeada operatives", but why not against the criminals?
Q-2 The government claims that the law and order situation in all the four provinces is satisfactory and it time to time compares with other countries of the region. What do you think?
Q-3 What action should be taken against the concerned police office?
Q-4 Should the security agencies concentrating on war against criminals instead of "war on terror"?
