After Quetta attack

Published November 12, 2016

THIS is apropos the Nov 3 editorial regarding the tragedy at the Quetta Police Training Academy. If the training session of the newly-posted policemen was complete, then what was the purpose of recalling them?

As reported by the relatives of the affected policemen, some of those martyred were soon going to get married and most of them were in the age bracket of 18-25 years.

Which Islam tells you to kill innocent people?

The authorites concerned truly need to control terrorism.
