Sialkot Brothers: A Bushra Zaidi in the Making?



On Aug 15, dozens of people publicly beat to death two young brothers, Hafiz Mughees, 15, and Hafiz Muneeb, 19. Present on the occasion were the Sialkot District Police Officer Waqar Chauhan and eight policemen. These crime-stoppers watched crime committed literally on their watch. Instead of watching out for crime being committed, these immoral state employees watched the brutal act of lynching taking place in front of their own trained and watchful eyes. They could have stopped even resisted, called for backup, reinforcement, etc. But they were silent spectators, like watching a favorite mohalla pastime being played out in a galli. In fact, news reports said the SHO allegedly masterminded the killing of the brothers. He has fled away and is still at large.


The bodies of the Hafiz brothers were later hanged upside down on the chowk. Some reports said the locale was the exterior of 1122 rescue office. Phew! what a way to rescue or be rescued! Allah Khair Karey!


Mob frenzy, gang mentality, gladiator philosophy all of these jellied and spurted out like toothpaste and cleansed their demented souls. Souls of all those who volunteered to witness the gory incident on a day after the 63rd birth anniversary of Pakistan.


Its an irony that lawlessness danced in concert with immorality on a day of fasting. Its the holy month of Ramadan when even the sinful slow down. How many of those who watched the lynching were fasting that day? Did they break their fast with it or after it?

What message have you given to the world about Pakistan, the Chief Justice asked DPO Chauhan and said: Nowhere in a civilized society such an incident takes place in the presence of police.


What about the message sent up who watched all of it and whose first language is silence?

Not only it was the duty of police to stop those who were beating the twobrothers, but the people in the mob should also have shown moral courage by preventing the beating, the chief justice said.


The DPO told the court that FIR against 12 people has been lodged on charges of murder of the two young men while SHO has been taken into custody. Why wasnt this done on the same day ? Why didnt the Punjab IG take notice of it? Where were the local politicians? PML-N, PML-Q, PPP, PTI? What about the Punjab administration? The system failed!


Will the arrest of the 12 police officers bring back the soul of the twobrothers? One is said to be a Hafiz Quran, other one I am not sure. Both were crazy about cricket I am told. Khawaja Asif (PML-N) told Shahid Masood he knew the family well and over three generations. Did he contact them the day this incident happened or did he wait to jump into action once the news hit the roof and became a public issue to be milked for political mileage?


Today is the sixth day of the horrible incident. While the Dapper Dan chief executive of the country chose to remain silent, the delusional but Teflon President came out from his bunker (on the sixth day) to strongly condemn the killing and called for report, inquiry, etc. into the gruesome incident. What is he going to do after that? Stack it along with Benazir Bhutto murder report?


It is a defining moment for the introduction of rule of law in Pakistan. Now or never! Only the youth can push this matter through though. They just sacrificed two of their own. If the death of Bushra Zaidi could be the defining moment for politics in Karachi, so can the death of these twobrothers be for the advent of rule of law in Pakistan. The rest will swirl into place like the unwinding of a warped wire of a telephone headset. Go for it. Pakistan is still wired not cordless!

Cruel, corrupt, heartless citizens and so called protectors of citizens ... Shame on all Pakistanis and every individual who participated in the brutal killing of two young innocent kids .... especially the DPO, SHO, Police, all participants and even those who just stood by inciting others for this brutal crime... Allah will not only show them in this world but hereafter. Only Allah can have mercy on them ... but I sincerely pray to Allah for all of them to rot in hell. Allah's justice will be served ..... We unfortunately forget that this life is not infinite...Everyone who has come has to go and meet the Creator so I have news for them ... be Prepared for Hell awaits them. I am ashamed to be call a Pakistani anymore ... This incident has destroyed my trust in this system. This country is so-called a Muslim country formed in the name of Islam ... and this is what our society is ... soulless, heartless, shameless .... this country is only for the rich and powerful ... there is no justice and equality for the poor and powerless. May Allah have mercy on our souls and may Allah make nishan-e-ibrat each and every one who was involved in this crime directly or indirectly and we hope that we see the day when there will be justice for everyone and everyone treated equally ... a true Islamic welfare state.

i have never heard such a brutality in my life. ever... i could not sleep after watching this on ARY TV. i was trembling and my hands were shaking when i saw this... i am still in state of shock. it has reminded me the brutal murder of Jesus peace be upon him. this is not something you simply ignore....

shows where our morality stands and what have we become... probably worse than wild beasts who probably only kill to survive or to feed themselves.... shame on us... shame on those rascals and no one of them should be let off a trial. this is what i call terror

Today, I am sure the soul of Iqbal is in great unrest that these guys are from his own city.

He is again praying to the God.

Koi ummeed bar nahi aati, Koi surat nazar nahi aati
Maut ka ek din muayyan hai, Neend kyun raat bar nahi aati

Aage aati thi haal e dil pe hasi, Ab kisi baat par nahi aati
Hai kuch aisi hi baat jo chup hai, Warna kya baat kar nahi aati

Daag-e-dil gar nazar nahi aata, wo bhi aye charagar nahi aati
Hum wahan hai jahan se humko bhi, Kuch humari khabar nahin aati

kyon na cheekhon ki yaad karte hain, meri aawaaz gar nahin aati
Marte hai aarzoo mein marne ki, Maut aati hai par nahi aati

kaaba kis munh se jaaoge Ghalib, sharam tumko magar nahi aati

Those people who committed such barbaric crime are termed as 'FASADIS' and their treatment should be execution according to Quran.

I couldn't sleep when I watched the unscreened video. I just cried and cried. I am very depressed by thinking why this kind of brutal incident occurred during holy month. Both of brothers were Qurani hafiz I suppose. Their mother prepared sweets for matric pass of elder brother. She kept those sweets in fridge but went to no one's mouth. I am very furious not only this kind of ugry incident had occurred but also people around the brother didn't help them out of their crisis at any stage. No rescue 1122 had helped, no police helped , no public or mob helped. I can well imagine how desperated the brother became by seeing no one rescuing them. I have heard that small brother said not to hurt his elder brother, then brutal murderer killed the small one first, then elder brother. He was so tired of being beaten that he asked the murderer to shoot him. Half of head of one of the brothers was removed off after being dragged by trolly. This is the most cruel incident happened in this century.
May Allah heal their soul and take them to jannat.

I hope that Munawwar Hassan of JI and Imran Khan of PTI will request the government to HOLD TALKS with those villagers. I hope they would condemn any action taken against these villagers.

If they propose talks with taliban, then why are they calling for action against the villagers. I demand that no DOUBLE STANDARDS be displayed.

After TALKS with Sialkotees, Imran Khan should go to Karachi to hold TALKS with MQM.

In imran khan's view, the villagers did nothing wrong but displayed their "RADD-E-AMAL" (reaction).
