Pakistan commits crimes against Afghan refugees :

Afghan refugees have also been tortured by Pakistan's army & police. They even torture & imprison Afghan kids. This all happens under the watch of human rights international organisations. They decided to turn a blind eye to this inhuman situation.

افسوسناک ،افسوسناک ،افسوسناک...
یہ واقعہ ابھی راولپنڈی کے تھانہ وارث خان کے علاقے میں ہوا ہے،
پولیس شہریوں کی حفاظت اور چوروں ڈاکووں کو پکڑنے کے بجائے کہیں اور مصروف ہے،
اس سب کے بعد کیا دیکھنے کو باقی ہے؟ 💔
خدارا ملک پر رحم کریں 🙏🙏

I must share with all of you that throughout this call, Z was in extreme anguish and pain. I started crying myself as I listened to her and at some points I felt so hopeless and shameful at how our quest for good viewership can make us so selfish and heartless. Z told me she asked a viewer randomly on one of the many pages who were comparing the drama with her life story if she thought they took permission from the victim.? And she said the viewer was sure that the permission was not taken. “My question is when everyone knew I never wanted to come in the limelight, why was I thrown into it again and again? So many known people, celebrities, politicians etc wanted to come and meet me or talk to me post incident, but I always declined because I wanted my privacy and didn’t want anything else but the culprits punished. Is it all about making money? Does no one care what I am going through by this triggered trauma? What my kids and husband will be going through? Do they even know how I am spending my life? Everyday is a struggle. I am being thick skinned and staying alive only for my children. They didn’t even care for my children. Do you know my kids have not forgotten..”, at this point she wailed loudly. I couldn’t stop my tears either. “Every time someone knocks at door loudly my kids look at me with concerned eyes because they know I will be scared”. Z informed me one of the investigating senior officers in her case had died unfortunately and but she is in touch with the new police officer and everyone in the force calls her their sister and tell her how “brave” she is. “ But that bravery is just a show to keep going, for my kids, for getting justice but drama makers didn’t even wait for justice, and spiced things up for their own benefit. First time I watched the drama was the driving scene and I was totally traumatised, at that point I didn’t event realise they were playing my story”, Z said that she had not achieved an award that it was to be glamorised and made a drama into. She had struggled with a painful incident and Reenactment of it so sensationally into her face was mocking her pain, she said the drama writers should know such incident are “painful” and making money at someone’s pain is ferocious. They are not to be acted upon . This will not bring any sanity to the society, only more unrest as the realisation is that it’s done only for TRPs. Amidst sobs , she continued, “ everyone is praising Hadiqa for her great acting skills, if only she knew what is this in real life? People don’t let me live, don’t let me forget. They are now taunting the kids in drama? What is this? Why would someone do this? The drama makers want a tag on me for the rest of my life, that I am that motorway wali.”As Z moaned , I also wondered why senior actors opted to act in a storyline which clearly was going to be so controversial. Especially students of psychology should have had some sensitivity. “Can you pls get this drama stopped? Can Pak pls help me stop this? It’s like whole world is watching my misery and pain as I am reliving it. Pls tell them to make this once I am dead, I am alive right now or did they think I would have died? And pls not even after my death as I have children, they can make this after we have all died”. Z kept on explaining what a massive struggle her life had been since the trauma and how people hindered her healing. How she has finally started moving on until the drama. “ You know how they deal with victims in our country. Even if I dress up, it’s a crime, even if I smile, people judge me, if I had died that night, they would have shown sympathy, now that I am alive, they are ensuring I die,” Z also told me she was thinking of starting sleeping pills again as she was unable to sleep these days.
I shared this story with you in the hope that @reportpemra will take some action. Or organisations that deal with rape and women issues may come forward and look at the insensitivity of this matter.

As God is my witness, I did not sign Official Secrets Amendment Bill 2023 & Pakistan Army Amendment Bill 2023 as I disagreed with these laws. I asked my staff to return the bills unsigned within stipulated time to make them ineffective. I confirmed from them many times that whether they have been returned & was assured that they were. However I have found out today that my staff undermined my will and command. As Allah knows all, He will forgive IA. But I ask forgiveness from those who will be effected.

Here is solid business startup idea :

The rates per kg for tomatoes as reported by tv channels are as follows:

NDTV - ₹ 120
AJ TAK - ₹ 100
News 18 - ₹ 80
DD News - ₹ 70/-

My business idea- let's buy tomatoes from DD News and sell them to NDTV!
