After this action of FBR my friend flew to Switzerland, opened a bank amount there and is transferring all his cash there.
If you want to scare money out of Pakistan give FBR the power to take money out of bank account without consent.
کوئی ابھی آ بھی نہیں رہا لیکن پھر بھی گذشتہ ایک ہفتہ سے پورے فیض آباد اور بلیو ایریا وغیرہ کے کاروبار بند، ہوٹل بند۔ یہ کیا حکمت عملی ہے۔ لوگوں کا روزگار بند کر دیا گیا، شادیوں کی تقریبات خراب ہو رہی ہیں۔ جڑواں شہروں کے لوگ سخت پریشان ہیں۔ اس پر وزیراعظم @CMShehbaz اور وزیراعلی پنجاب @MaryamNSharif کوئی فیصلہ کریں۔
🇵🇰 Islamabad has been under pandemic-style lockdown for days waiting for U.S.-Iran talks that keep not happening. The city is paying a heavy price.
- Streets empty, shops shuttered, public transport closed, workers told to stay home
- Thousands of hostel residents were evicted on Saturday by government order, many left scrambling for shelter
- Daily wage laborers going without work or food for 6+ days
- Power cuts of up to 7 hours due to fuel shortages caused by the Hormuz closure
- Civil service exams for 1,200 candidates relocated 230 miles away to Lahore
- Taxi drivers report 50% drop in earnings

Public Holidays again: What economic sense does this notification make? Why make life of citizens and businesses miserable just for a few foreign delegates? Why not help-transfer them? What's the rationale behind so many public holidays in an economy already teetering on survival.

GENIUS PSL MANAGEMENT. 👏
- Lahore, Faisalabad & Rawalpindi will host 10 day matches under the scorching sun. None of the stadiums have roofs.
- The Sindh derby between Karachi and Hyderabad will be played in Lahore, that too as a day game.
- Karachi Kings will play more matches in Lahore than in Karachi.
- And then we ask why people don’t come to watch PSL matches.
@aamir_ibrahim01@jazzpk@jazz_worldpk@PTAofficialpk@MoitOfficial You need to improve your services drastically sir. I have lost signals, voice breaking up, poor data connectivity right in the middle of Islamabad, wonder how it would be in smaller cities..
💔💔💔 This mother never left her child… she brought her son into this world, and has now joined him in the next world...
Our Brave and Powerful Armed Forces will avenge each and every Iranian mother, father, and child who has been targeted by hostile forces.
Gut-wrenching. Children heading to school — and never coming home.
“U.S. military investigators believe it is likely American forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls’ school that killed scores of children” https://t.co/GQO7RQeFLN
These are graves being dug for more than 160 innocent young girls who were killed in the US-Israeli bombing of a primary school. Their bodies were torn to shreds.
This is how "rescue" promised by Mr. Trump looks in reality.
From Gaza to Minab, innocents murdered in cold blood.
Uniformed armed personnel in green-plated SUVs allegedly rammed our vehicle on Murree Road today while driving at high speed. When we confronted them, around 15 uniformed men carrying AK-47s attempted to take our car keys and snatched our phones as we tried to film the incident.
When we said let’s call the police, they said we are the police as can be heard in the video.
They fled the scene once other vehicles began stopping and noticing what was happening.

This is deeply alarming. No citizen should face intimidation or violence from those meant to enforce the law.
If this is not abuse of authority, what is?
We demand accountability and a transparent inquiry. Citizens cannot be treated this way.
