Youth shot dead by rangers in Karachi




Again a young man has been killed by rangers in Karachi. Sarfaraz Shah was quite young & they are painting him as a professional criminal.Almost a year ago Muneeb & Mugheez were brutally murdered by monsters & justice has not been delivered so far & here we have another case in which this boy is killed by rangers. You could see video footage of this murder as well.

The boy was arrested in Benazir Bhutto Park. According to the rangers, he was involved in dacoity. However, his family is saying that he went to the park for outing. Whatever the reason is, the rangers have no right to killed someone just like that. His brother Salik Shah is a reporter & the journalists held a protest at the chief minister’s house. Moreover, I just don’t buy this shitty story. They are saying that a family had been held hostage by some dacoit in the park. When the rangers asked him to surrender, he refused point blank & they just shot him. It is also reported that he even grabbed the weapons of the security forces. It doesn’t seem so from the video that this young man was such a big threat or he was even involved in robbing. Plus, he was begging for his life.

Naturally we can’t expect much when security forces instead of protecting people go around killing innocent folks. Sarfaraz just like Muneeb & Mugheez seemed innocent but we will have zillions of stories questioning his innocence as well.

I’m not surprised cause I’m from a country where such things happen every now & then. Some pull the trigger & kill you. Some make sure you kill yourself. Life happens to be really cheap & we have no clue as to what is justice. Might is right & life is cheap. Although various political parties have condemned this incident but so what? This thing will happen again. There is no compassion whatsoever. Even ordinary people never think twice before hurting anyone with their words & deeds, & I have written this particular thing a zillion times. They may not kill you but they wouldn’t mind if you commit suicide either; then they will have more fun judging you.

Even though video of this murder is available online but do not expect much. Justice is not for the common man. And it’s also amazing that someone or the other is always making video. A day will come when we will feel nothing after watching such videos. As it is we are already dead.
