Guy holding AK in Blue Area Islo

There is a fear that the gunman either wearing a suicide jacket or explosive material is in car.
 
So ex chairman bait ul maal Zamurd Khan came to negotiate and then jumped on the shooter, But he side. And then open fired on Zamurd Khan.
 
Atlast the police do their job. After the shooter got away from Zamurd Khan he was shot in the legs.
 
Kids are alright. Though they and Zamurd could have been killed.


Shoould have never come to this.
 
Hows Zamurd Khan? Very very silly of him to do what he did He couldve been killed as well as others

Who allowed him to approach the guy and do what he did? What a farce

Did he try to tackle him??
 
Zamurad Khan pretended to want to meet the family and then pounced on the shooter, but slipped. The shooter shot bullets at him but missed. The police then shot him (the shooter) in the leg and captured him.

Bizarre.
 
Even when he was firing people were standing close to them and watching the Tamasha :facepalm:

Only in pakistan
 
Had they followed my advice it wouldn't have come to this, now let us pray that bhutto doesn't get revived due to this. But good job by Zamrud Khan
 
Apparently PPP are already capitalizing on one of their own involved in such bravery/lunacy.

He could have been killed. He was extremely lucky.
 
Stupidity of the highest order

In no other country would you have seen this sort of amateurish and dangerous attempt at ending a situation like this

Just watched the footage on TV. What an absolutely retarded end to the situation. Thank God no one was killed.
 
media played a d*** headed role in this along with the police, sikander, and the self claimed super hero who almost cost ppl their lives, and not to forget the cake goes to the idiot public that gathered there with their families with popcorn and ice creams in their hands to watch this action movie up close...
 
ARY bureau chief Sabir Shakir reporting that the delay in any kind of action was due to everyone was afraid of suo moto which can be taken by Supreme Court if something bad happen and then who will go and face court. Police personnel were also discussing the Lal masjid incidence.

Lets analyse the episode professionally not emotionally. This is important to draw lessons from it to know where the admin failed. Handling such situations is the professional responsibility of Police, so we must know where they failed.

This was typically a hostage situation where a dangerous man was wielding two automatic guns and using his own family as human shield. Surrounded by ordinary citizens who were dangerously exposed if he had fired in public. He was nervous, dangerous, armed -- all the credentials that he can be shot down by Police. The drama started after Asar time, when there was enough light and visibility.

When it was clear in the initial 30 minutes that the man is behaving insanely, it was time for snipers to be put in place. There was enough space, visibility and target available for professional snipers to hit him on the shoulders to incapacitate him. That was NOT done because Islamabad Police did NOT have snipers !! Can you believe this ? They had to bring two snipers from the airport after many hours but they were not given orders to shoot despite clear view. Also, airport was dangerously exposed as airport snipers were now after Sikandar !

The government went into panic, totally lost and confused. Islamabad Police was frozen, media went into frenzy and nation into suspense as live drama dragged on and night fell reducing the visibility. This is where things started to go wrong. Media started to increase pressure on government and police and still there was no plan.

Here, enter Mr. Zumurrad Khan. He goes to negotiate but suddenly decides to jump on Sikandar, lost his own balance, fell off and then ran like hell to save himself. A most dangerous act which caught even the police by surprise throwing off all plans into air. The act of sheer mad "bravery" risked the lives of everyone around and then Police had to shoot Sikandar immediately. Sikandar could have shot Zummarad but he did not. Now Sikandar is seriously wounded and may actually die which would destroy all the initial requirements that he must be arrested alive.

On a professional scale, this was a botched up messed up operation where a politicians risked his own and other people lives and nearly got the prime suspect killed in confusion. If this was US, Mr. Zumurrad would be put on trial for risking the lives of so many people in sheer stupid bravado and acting so recklessly on his own without police authorization. You can make him a hero, I dont mind. but know that for what he did, I would have him lashed for it.

The whole episode could have been ended at 5:30 when Sikandar was in the open and one sniper could have taken him out. Thats it. Rest is propaganda and media circus, trying to cash in on an operation where politicians are trying to score points, police claiming victory and media had a field day. In all seriousness, this handling has made me very very concerned. Islamabad admin has failed catastrophically.
