Jan7-2025--three killed including two policemen in Lakki and Bannu attacks by militants
Jan7-2025--many think that the Pti negotiating committee has nothing to talk about and is just being irritating on demanding access to Imran...while Imran has refused to be released Pti workers are being released by military courts and civil courts...since no progress in negotiations has been noticed there is no reason to meet Imran for instructions...PMLn should explain its views on commissions and releasing Pti workers for things to move forward...the PMLn probably insists on a written communication because the Pti could just say that they have not asked for this or that...as for military inputs demanded by Pti the army chief could ask the ISPR chief/judge advocate general to attend talks to give the military versions on things...the PMLn should be prepared for new demands since the present demands are almost on the verge of rejection...the PMLn should also explain what it wants irrespective of Pti's demands...certain new things have emerged in bani/Bushra's running away with jewelry sets/pound 190 million extortion...and not depositing them in toshakhana...apparently Zulfi Bukhari and Farah Gogi also benefited from land given by Malik Riaz...no reason is assigned why Farah Gogi got 240 canals...a judge also gave a dubious ruling that gifts did not have tobe deposited in the Toshakhana..there is a case of corruption against Imran's father who received 600 Kanals free from a woman and sold it to his children for 7 million...Imran sold it for 340 million recently...!Farah Gogi is also accused of collecting one billion from beaurocrats who got appointments or transfers or plum jobs...apparently Farah Gogi gave Imran's hissa/share of around 250 million before she fled the country...!
Jan6-2025--PPP also wins a form 47 battle as their mpa Jattak pb-45 wins reelection on 15 polling stations where repolling was held...JUI and PKmap protest and calls it a false form 47 victory...Forms 45 are only issued by each polling station and there is always writing and cutting on them as the polling agents add on the results of various polling stations...Jattak, the judge decreed had increased his votes from 195 to over 5000 by manipulations...he now got over 6000...!
Jan6-2025--Asad Qaiser not keen on presenting demands in writing...PMLn thinks they will present more impossible demands...Government should also prepare their conditions especially the end of PTi's anti Pakistan moves...The PTI which does not like talks usually tries to run away from the results of negotiations...
Jan6-2025--government apparently refusing to obey IMF orders on captive power plants run with LNG/natural gas...IMF has ordered the stoppage of gas supply/a massive price increase ...IMF wants them to pay grid prices by hefty levying of taxes...? seems very strange!
Jan5-2025--In other reports a German politician Annemarie(from the outgoing German coalition who are slated to lose in the February elections) was asked by the HTS to see to it that Muslim women get education and jobs in Germany and vice versa...she was also told that it is the west Europeans who are conservative extremists...as in some areas a women wearing pants is not allowed...she apparently also opposed Islamism probably in direct correlation to Christianism...the west Europeans now want the Kurds to be accommodated who are in a conflict between the Syrians and Turks who are trying to divide a wedge between the Kurdish controlled territory...the EU agenda is meant to continue the conflict orientation in Syria which is not in a position to continue the fight as the Israeli's, US and EU agendas conflict...The present situation has caused an exit of Hezbollah, Iran and Russia from the direct fight between all the protagonists...expecting losers to also be accommodated is a pretty strange situation...the Syrians can only include those that accept the country and its new rulers.
Jan5-2025--five FC men amongst six killed in a blast in Kech area. In which an explosive laden vehicle hit an FC vehicle bringing troops from Karachi...a SSP vehicle also was hit in the attack
Jan5-2025-meanwhile in Kurram a deputy commissioner was attacked in Bagan area as he prepared for taking a convoy to Parachinar...! Things remain in a flux as the KP government has been unable to control the Bagan area killers...
Jan5-2025--having been unable to lure the military in for talks and having fallen for the PMLn ruse who dragged them in for talks...having also realized that their written demands would be made fun off. It only took one day for the PTI after closing the door to military talks to again start the dumb nonsense of wanting the real decision makers(military) at the table...The PTi seemingly again wants to jump out of talks if their controllers (the military) are not present...The PMLn too is ambivalent and would like for the Pti to give their demands in writing. The PTI talks committee seems weak and has no power...what they want is to continuously contact Imran as if he would disappear if they did not meet him...methinks the PMLn has not even given a response and the PTI still want further instructions...In this situation the only talks possible would be between Imran and one of the two i.e. Shebaz/Zardari...apparently the PMLn committee has suggested that they will consult the military if they are involved e.g. May9 issues...
Jan4-2025--Pti has started to realize its futility and lack of common sense in wanting to talk to the military and have closed that chapter...many think that the Pti wanted to insult the government...anyway something maybe working their way as another nineteen of May9 convicts have been given benefit of compassion and mercy(mafi..).and 250 arrested on Nov26 given bail...Mahmud khan Achakzai does not realize that his associates are liars...even though they have still been given the liberty to propagate their lies...maybe he has not lived in martial law times and does not realize that dissent is almost treason...only the intelligent can differentiate between opposition lies and propaganda and the truth...
Jan-2025--two soldiers kidnapped in Lakki Marwat area...one escapes...meanwhile motorcyclists shot dead a policeman in Bannu area
Jan4-2025--Saim Ayub breaks his ankle in a simple fall...That puts paid to the end of his playing as an opening bat unless he gets the fracture adjusted physically in which case it can set quickly...as six weeks plus a month of acclimatization means a long layoff...with Abdullah Shafik almost a total failure...Pakistan needs to either recall Imam Ul Haq or develop three or four new opening batsmen...Azan Awais, Mohd Huraira and two or three playing at the top in the under 19 team need tobe called up and developed(tried out)... Niaz khan and Moosa khan have bowled well in Pakistan too...given the pathetic performance of openers and fast bowlers in south Africa new possibilities should be explored...there are always many players around and Aquib Javed should open his eyes and go looking for them
Jan3-2025--The Lahore Zoo has at best been privatized or outsourced for Rs.500 million and entry fees enhanced to Rs100...
Jan3-2025--The second round of talks between Pti and the government ended without anything...many suggested that the PTI had asked its people to standby ready for Imran tobe released...many suggest that the PTI team just wanted more meetings with Imran who has expressed a desire to stay in jail where he at least gets good roti salan...others suggest that the PTI team wanted to understand Imran's point of view and how far they could go in negotiations and why he now prefers to remain in jail...others suggest that Imran's release is now off the cards and the team will regard Imran as one of the parties ordinary workers...they also want to know whether he still wants a commission on May9...or wants a military trial...!
Jan3-2025--in a move that seemed a bit surprising the military released 19 more pti prisoners who had been sentenced to two years in May9 acts of arson and violence. Of the 19 seven were released from Peshawar jail and annoyed many top leaders who had been claiming that they were military imposters by raising Pti slogans...these are being released as they had entered a Mafi nama/mercy appeal and were given the benefit of mercy...twenty had been released earlier by rendering their sentences withdrawn on appeal for mercy. Usually there is no mercy appeal in civilian sentences...!65 have applied for mercy release...five of those having two-year sentences have not been given mercy who include a retired group captain of the Airforce...a lawyer of the bani's nephew - Haider Majeed, Izzat khan, Mian Abad Farook and Akram Usman a former mpa...
Jan3-2025--It is being suggested that the PMLn opposition was being orchestrated by Asif Zardari as some saw the hope for an early election...The PPP hoped for support in Punjab to increase but that has not been true as Punjabis do not like the Bilawal moves and his parties supporting road blocking by Shiites in Karachi but not Sunnis...and opposing the building of more canals in Punjab...the PPP has a general anti Punjab policy and it is unlikely they can win the next election in Punjab without the open support of the PMLn...On nov26 the entire Zardari family ran off to Dubai...
Jan3-2035--Sit-ins continue at Parachinar against the 85-day closure of roads even after the signature of two warring parties...Gandapur had been ambivalent to the problems in Kurram and had been forced to pay attention to his home provinces problems
Jan3-2025--a tesla cybertruck blows up outside a trump hotel...Musk says it was explosive material. Fire is known to breakout in batteries in EV vehicles
