Your future “The secret barrister”.

As per reports, #PeshawarPolice yet again killed 6, while 8 injured across #Peshawar in just 1 day.
Looks like, they will beat the numbers of CCD Punjab’s 900 kills 8 months.
Is there anyone who can hold the police to account?
A Purging campaign. No due process of the law.

[Imad Khalil @ImadK122]

Absoutely despicable. This is being done in a well-known district of KP Province Bannu. One wonders, where the police are, where the special branch is, and of course those bragging about state power and writ of the state?

یا اللہ رحم ۔ یہ پاکستان میں کیا ہورہا ہے

بتایا جارہا ہے کہ یہ خیبرپختونخواہ کے ضلع بنوں کے تحصیل ڈومیل کی ویڈیو ہے جس میں ٹی ٹی پی کے لوگ 15 سالہ لڑکی پر تشدد کررہے ہیں ۔

اس غریب لڑکی کا کوئی بھی نہیں ہے ۔ والدین بوڑھے اور بیمار ہیں ۔ اس لئے یہ لڑکے کا حلیہ بنا کر دکان پر ملازمت کررہی تھی ۔

لیکن ٹی ٹی پی کے لوگوں کی اس پر نظر پڑ گئی انہوں نے اغواہ کرلیا اور اس پر بہت تشدد کررہے ہیں ۔

اور اس کو کہا جارہا ہے کہ تمہاری ہمت کیسے ہوئی گھر سے باہر نکلنے کی ۔ لڑکی منتیں کررہی ہے کہ میرے والد بیمار ہیں مجھے جانے دو ۔ لیکن وہ کہہ رہے ہیں آج تمہارا آخری دن ہے ۔

The speed at which “human rights champions” become war enthusiasts is impressive.

Militant proxies were once strategic assets. Now their autonomy is called betrayal.

Media mockery replaces policy thinking.

Two fragile economies flirting with escalation.

[Imad Khalil @ImadK122]

What’s going on? Where is the due process of the law? If Police can kill with impunity in the name of crime prevention, this is a really really bad precedent. If not held by the book, they could turn into a Frankenstein monster.

The deaths and injuries of civilians & FC personals in Bannu, Bajaur & Shangla in terror attacks in Pakhtunkhwa have been ignored by the provincial and federal govts, media & pol parties. Pashtuns lives do not matter in Pakistan as they are considered subjects & not citizens.

لاہور کی شادی ہے،
بسنت صرف تہوار نہیں تھی بلکہ دبے ہوئے جذبات کی اجتماعی ریلیز تھی۔
ثقافت نے خوف اور TLP جیسے بیانیوں کو پیچھے دھکیل دیا۔
اب ریاست کی ذمہ داری ہے کہ ایسی سرگرمیاں صرف پنجاب تک محدود نہ ہوں۔
پاکستان صرف پنجاب نہیں، اور پنجاب ہی پاکستان نہیں

طالبان: لڑکیاں تعلیم نہیں لیں گی۔

حکومت: تعلیم ہو گی، مگر آواز، فن، آزادی کے بغیر۔

آج نصاب کنٹرول،
کل شاید دروازے بند۔

فرق صرف طریقے کا ہے،

In the wake of a welcome party in Peshawar University, a group of JUI-F and JI local leaders met with @CSKPOfficial to raise objections on a video of a female student merely participating in a modelling contest as “OBCENE & IMMORAL”.

CS said “don’t worry I got you”. Appeasement

[Imad Khalil @ImadK122]

A funfair/welcome party in UoP where males and females participated is the basis of this notification.

A group of local politicians went to meet @GovernmentKP Chief Secretary. Raised objections on female’s participation, CS said okay we will ban it, and here we go.

پختونخوا کے خواتین کالجز میں تقریبات کیلئے نئے ایس او پیز جاری۔

موسیقی، رقص، ماڈلنگ یا اس نوعیت کی کسی بھی پرفارمنس پر مکمل پابندی ۔ کالج اوقات اور تقریبات کے دوران خواتین کالجز میں موبائل فونز کے استعمال پر پابندی ہوگی، تمام طالبات کے لئے تقریب میں شرکت کے دوران کالج یونیفارم پہننا لازمی ہوگا۔

[Imad Khalil @ImadK122]

Because of pressure from a small section of Molvis, the KP government has banned music, modelling and various kinds of extracurricular activities within universities and colleges in KP.

@SohailAfridiISF look into this, stop moral policing of educational institutions.

[Imad Khalil @ImadK122]

Laws meant to combat terrorism should not be repurposed to criminalise political criticism.

Human rights lawyers calling out state abuse is not extremism, it is accountability. The chilling effect of such verdicts speaks louder than any tweet.

The Cambridgeshire police not only need to arrest but also expose the attackers and their handlers.

[Imad Khalil @ImadK122]

I completely disagree with Shahzad Akbar and his political role as a Minisiter. But attacking him for his political beliefs, and that too in the UK, is sheer stupidity.

Melody
I'm an intoxicated madness,
Ready to ride a steed of wind
If one colour is of my beloved's eyes
I fill many dancing colours in them
Why am I created,
I don't know, nor do I gather,
Why I become a passion,
A melody that plays on.
Ghani Khan

I had started translating this book into Urdu in 1973 and Urdu monthly magazine Naqeeb was publishing it. Qayum Khan, who was interior minister at that time got so angry that he sent police to raid my room in a hostel of d Peshawar University for confiscating d translation.

ان چراغوں کو تو جلنا ہے ہوا جیسی ہو
درد کی راتوں کو ڈھلنا ہے ہوا جیسی ہو
شوق کی آگ کو مدھم نہ کرو ، دیوانو
اپنی آواز کی لو کم نہ کرو ، دیوانو
پھر سے سورج کو نکلنا ہے گھٹا جیسی ہو
ان چراغوں کو تو جلنا ہے ہوا جیسی ہو

Shot and kill.
They can not be absolved from public scrutiny. If they are not stopped now, the police itself will become the biggest gangsters of the city & will always be available for private hire killings.
We need answers.

[Imad Khalil @ImadK122]

Over the last 2 years in general and last few months in particular, CPO Peshawar directly shoots and kills alleged "criminals, snatchers, and land mafia" without following the due process of the law. Every week, they kill someone.

Police is a state institution,

[Imad Khalil @ImadK122]

And state institutions don't kill criminals. They prosecute them.
Instead of addressing the broken criminal justice system, age-old investigation & evidence collection methods, training of investigators and other police officials, they have resorted to the easy option of
