MQM Leader Hassan Arif found dead in Karachi

It has become a fashion to blame politicians and bureaucrats for every thing happening in our so-called land of pure.It is high time that we should start questioning the sacred holy cows and hold them accountable for all their mistakes.First we lost East Pakistan and now Baluchistan is demanding separation form us;these are the results of the policy followed by security establishment.Now,they have applied the policy of killing and dumping to counter political workers in Karachi as well.I have no sympathies for any MQM faction but this brutal murder of the respected persona,Hassan Arif is absolutely wrong and intolerable.
 
Well, Karachi needs cleansing. Its the question of finding dead bodies of citizens vs corrupt bureaucrats.

MQM-P chief expresses grief and concerns over the body of Dr Hasan Zafar Arif being found in Karachi

Sattar said he received the shocking news of Dr Hasan Zafar Arif’s death when he landed in Multan. “I am grief-stricken by his martyrdom,” he said.

He termed the ‘murder’ a conspiracy to disrupt peace in Karachi. “We may have political differences [with Dr Arif] but we will not let any conspiracy against the city’s peace.”

“It is a horrifying situation, he has been martyred, murdered,” Sattar told media. “Despite our political differences, I and my party [MQM-P] stands with him.”

He demanded the provincial government and law enforcement agencies to find and punish the professor’s killers.

Interview with The Express Tribune

In an interview with The Express Tribune, Dr Arif had said that Marxists and communist parties across the world and throughout history have supported the ongoing democratic struggle to pave the way for a revolutionary change and saw MQM’s struggle as furthering democratic values.

The professor had said he used Marxism as a framework to evaluate his political steps. Every support he extends to the ‘bourgeois’ parties came only after he measured the probable consequences, and in each case the litmus test is the role of the party at that juncture in the advancement of the democratic cause.

The 75-year-old was professor of philosophy and has taught in a number of universities in Karachi. He has made significant contributions to progressive writings in Pakistan.

I think Punjab-home of the religious extremists-needs more cleansing than Karachi.Why are the Rangers in Punjab not given the same powers that they have been given in Karachi?
And this cleansing must include the corrupt generals of the army as well.
