The death of Naqeebullah Mehsud, a Pushtoon who moved from South Waziristan to Karachi, in an ‘encounter’ led by Senior Superintendent of Police Rao Anwar has been highlighted by the social media owing to the fact that the deceased had no affiliation with any of the terrorist organizations.
The claims made by the Police that the 27-year-old Naqeeb belonged to Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) have not convinced anyone on social media.
Furthermore, the relatives of the slain Pushtoon have made it clear that Naqeeb had no association with any of the terrorist organizations named by the Police department, rather he was a shop owner who loved modelling.
Pakistani Twitterati and civil society activists have sparked a movement, demanding justice for the victim of the Karachi Police’s high-handedness.
Here’s what people are saying about the issue.
#JusticeForNaqeebMehsud #NaqeebMehsud. We are not satisfied with inquiry of PPP Govt given the parties old and well reported ties with #RaoAnwar. A suspension may be used to pacifu protestors and suppress the issue. We demand a judicial inquiry by Supreme Court pic.twitter.com/5yyg2vV3au

Everyone stands against the unjust killing of the Pushtoon.
I vehemently condemn the corrupt and inept sindh police for the extra judicial killing of an innocent Waziristani brother of mine. He leaves three kids behind. His name is #NaqeebMehsud and his crime was that he was a tribal pukhtoon. #JusticeForNaqeeb pic.twitter.com/GQrRs7SGgz

SSP Rao Anwar needs to be questioned.
SSP Rao Anwar is not a protector. He is a killer, he kills innocent people in fake encounters.
Enough is enough now,

Tell us what you think. Drop your comments below.
Rao is a blue eyed boy of influential uncrowned king of Sindh and they are above Law and Justice, so as usual culprits will go scot-free. The hashtag “justice for him” or “Justice for her” won’t make any difference in the real world. People would have to come out on streets and protest until the hanging of the culprits. Rao is notorious gangster disguised as Policeman and no law and Justice can touch him.
You are even scared to name the king of sindh and you want justice we are also guilty of not being on road for him….
You are stupid. That’s all i can say.
And you proved it by writing “influential uncrowned king of Sindh” see it freely boy Zardari or PPP
Awam ko chaheay kay ek dou dafa achi terha en police walon ke thukai karain jam kay.
Werna hamesha police awam ko thokti rahay ge.
Kya bura hal daku qatil police walon nay awam ka kar rakha hai.
Student ho, tajir ho, job karnay wala ho, sabzi baichnay wala ho sab aajiz hain en police walon sai.
Criminals sahi rakhtay hain en police walon ko, kyun kay police walon ko maloom hota hai criminals kay sath kuch kya tou wo thukai kar dein gaay.
So if the guy has a good facebook profile then it proves that guy is innocent?.
Also those people who are calling for rule of law are forgetting that Top Courts indictment of criminals is non-existent.
These extra judicial killings seem so bad. But these are one of the reasons that Taliban attacks have gone down drastically.

Senior Superintendent of Police Rao Anwar must be charged with premeditated murder, racism, and potentially endangering the lives of innocent police personnel through revenge killing.
I am all in for such encounters, if it kills the ‘real’ culprits. But killing without any proof is useless and does more harm than good. No one knew what Mr Mehsood’s crime really was. Maybe he was from Waziristan, that’s why.
I also don’t like this hypocrite public of Pakistan. They are losing their sh*t over such murder but claiming the same for Zainab’s killer. Not to mention, their love for IG, who they think has done right ‘to take notice’ of Mr Rao. If only these people knew that these IG’s, ministers etc are BACKING such stuff, and Rao was just the tirgger.
Very upset to see how such a handsome person father of beautiful kids killed by the police without a process of fair investigation. Pakistan is a country of all races , colors & religions who are settled here legally. Zia & Musharraff culture must end.
I request all my pakhtoon muslim brother and sisters to leave our country Pakistan because they are no treated well here and they should go and live in Afghanistan and India the places they love.
