Some more details on the sad #motorwayincident .The woman called the emergency number #130 and spoke to them giving them her location. They gave her a local number where she was told to call for help.She called that number and gave them the location too. She ,them waited for help
She is, obviously too traumatised to recollect everything.Yet, she said it was a long wait. She is of the opinion that she waited for at least an hour. She also said her car has special type of windows. It was next to impossible for an outsider to tell she was alone in the car.
When the men appeared, they headed straight for her car. They were also carrying a gun. One of them carried her two year old as they dragged her along. She tried running away once and waved at a passerby car. She said she was sure the car had stopped and she was relieved.
Sadly, no help came from the car. She said at that point she was only concerned for her children and trying with all her might to save and protect them.They beat up her children severely.The children were bleeding and so was she. The shoes of kids were sprawled on the road.
As they were being dragged to the wilderness, she said she still tried to console her children by assuring them she was alright, at which, one of the men hit her head with the gun. She was reciting duas and making her kids do the same. The kids were also reciting prayers.
While the family was being dragged like sacrificial animals to the altar, they dropped the bag they had stolen from her.The bag had her gold bracelet worth Rs 5 lakh, Rs one lakh cash and other valuables.The monsters held her on gunpoint as they went looking for bag. Found it.
Therefore, the beasts had some nerve and felt comfortable as they committed this heinous crime. It's not like they were under any pressure or fear of the approaching police. Almost an hour and a half had passed since her first call to the Police. #motorwayincident #CCPOLahore
She said their intention was clear. She also said she would not be surprised if they had been tipped off. They were absolutely sure of what they planned to do. Her cell had fallen down under her seat. They never asked forit. The phone was found later from under her car seat.
When she called the family where she had been invited for dinner, she was inconsolable. When her close friend came to pick her up, she was surrounded by the Police. They were not letting her go without medical examination. The family wanted to keep it quiet. #motorwayincident
The family, under the extreme stress pleaded with the police to let them go.Her friend described her as "scared like a chicken",her eyes were popping out, she was shivering, she refused to even recognise her friend and family. It could not be sadder and heartbreaking than this.
The police insisted in medical report which of course is the professional requirement. The girl said she was promised confidentiality by senior officials at the incident. She was heartbroken to see her information was leaked. #motorwayincident
The woman has not eaten until now. She neither spoke nor could say much the first day.She is speaking a bit today but it's an extremely difficult time. Now, is the time for Pakistan to get up and unite in a singular movement where those who are responsible must be punished.
There was a moment after she changed and sat down on the floor. The family said she cried and cried with her screams reaching the highest peaks. "None of us had the heart to stop her", the friend told me with tears in her eyes."She doesn't say anything, but her eyes say it all"
To the robed dreams in eyes, we can say nothing. Yet, I gave the girl one message. "The whole Pakistan is with you, you have nothing to be ashamed of. We will make sure those responsible for your pain are punished." Let us all unite for this.Pls. #motorwayincident #CCPOLahore

Dubai Bushra Bibi Sister IDDAT Interview Fatima Ali via @YouTube…upsetting that family of a woman is pushed into giving these details 6 yrs after marriage. Islamic scholars have come out condemned the iddat case yet under this CJ, grave example was set.
Medieval mindset has been set by our courts in this regard and time will prove this was done due to political motives only. Spoke to a young colleague going though a divorce and she explained how scared she has been by the verdict in iddat case. The social impact is uncanny.
The judges have ensured that any woman in a suppressed or fraudulent marriage will think hundred times before taking any decision to suit her life. Divorce is a sad affair for family anyway but the heartless probe in this regard for political point scoring has ailed our society.

Exhibition of blatant rigging seems in NA71, #Sialkot. We announced this victory on @gnnhdofficial . Most channels did. This result was shown at least twelve times with diff percentage and every time @RehanaImtiazDar was leading against former Defence Minister @KhawajaMAsif

During crackdown on @PTIofficial , police and administration raided @UdarOfficial ‘s home several times, the main opponent of @KhawajaMAsif in his constituency. This was done while @KhawajaMAsif was minister and his party in government and later continued during interim govt.
@PTIofficial @UdarOfficial @KhawajaMAsif @UdarOfficial is much younger than @KhawajaMAsif contesting against him n losing since last 2 elections and had a very good chance to win in this election due to @PTIofficial popular wave. Accusations were hurled that Asif was instrumental in orchestrating of police raids on him.

For years there has been propaganada/misunderstanding against Pushtuns. Typecasting and stereotyping them in mostly Punjab/Karachi based media. Linking them with terrorism is the worst form of ignorance. They have been the protective wall against all oppression always.Our shield.
The war on terror unleashed a deadly era of uncertainty in the Pushtun belt of Pakistan. If anything, they have been the victims of policies made elsewhere. And they have always stood by Pakistan. Drone attacks, terrorist attacks, school attacks, we have seen it all.
By 2007, a militant culture was on the rise in FATA. In other words, it took terrorists just over five years to resurge from the tribal backyard and take the whole of Pashtun belt in Pakistan and Afghanistan by tide, while the policymakers in Islamabad looked the other

Today, public showed how much @arsched resonated with public. The biggest jinaza of any journalist in #Pakistan. Sad some TV channels snubbed this and showed advertising.
Goodbye Arshad Shareef.
Now, that the morning after funeral has also passed and it's dawning how touched and disturbed #Pakistan is by the untimely passing away of their star beloved journalist, Arshad Sharif. How loved he was. Now, being termed as Che Guevara of Pakistani journalism.
The community where I live is organizing Quran Khwanis for him.The what's app groups are busy doing khatame Quran.Already hundreds if not thousands of Qurans have been read for his isaale swaab.The guards and shopkeepers in my area were all at his funeral.Mothers praying for him.

The letter that PM @ImranKhanPTI showed at #Islamabad jalsa are minutes of an important meeting between extremely important officials of a country and our diplomats in that country. The message was conveyed on behalf of the highest officials in that country.
The message mentioned a regime change as "eminent" in Pak. The conversation entailed as seeing PM @ImranKhanPTI as problem between a cordial bilateral relationship between the countries. The highest official sent the message that if VONC is overruled, there will be consequences.
In the transcript that consists of more than four pages of this conversation, carries the words "VONC" and "Imran Khan", multiple times. The message is clear ,that one man is the problem and he must be eased out. The letter was sent a day before VONC was filed.

Will we ever stop judging people on how they look? The careless and callous remarks on #NoorMukaddam murder on why she was away for nights and why she was meeting a male, are not just disturbing but show the perverted sickness of mentality, fast growing in society.
Safety measures, being vigilant is indeed extremely important, especially in a society rife with crime and where there is little hope of punishment for the criminals, and yes, I am one of those who believes following religion saves one from a lot of unpleasantries in life, yet.
The callousness of why driving alone, why going alone, every 'why' targeting the victim, not the criminal has become a pathetic pattern.We MUST stop. Every citizen deserves protection. Ever criminal must be brought to #justice, stop spreading disinformation like infection .
