The Legendary Mr.Rehman Malik

Mr. Rehman Malik, yes, the legendary, Mr. Malik who was responsible for the security of Benazir Bhutto as his chief security officer, but he failed in his job, he failed miserably and Ms Bhutto was assassinated, and still no body know who did that shameful act. For Mr. Malik, in spite of the failure, it was not over. He came back, and this time he came back as the Interior Advisor to the newly elected Prime Minister of Pakistan and became the de facto head of all security apparatus under federal government. How he got that position: because of his credentials or because of his strong relationship with Mr. Zardari, the fortunate husband of Ms Bhutto and the president of Islamic Republic? I believe, every sensible person has the correct idea about answer.

Now Mr. Malik was there, but what followed, a wave of suicide attacks in every corner of the country with some major attacks on some major spots of chief importance. Weather it was attack on the Marriot in Islamabad or attack on Sri Lankan team, after every such incident, Mr. Malik appeared on national television and pledged that the culprits will be caught and will be prosecuted. We all know that this has still not happened. We still don’t know that who was really actually behind Marriot attack and who was responsible for the Lahore attack on Sri Lankan cricket team. So, Mr. Malik again represented a huge failure here.

And then we are here, on the March 30th, Lahore, once again under attack, this time a police academy, besieged by the terrorists and while siege is in progress Mr. Malik again appeared on television and advised the nation to stay calm and united to fight these terrorists.
Well, Mr. Malik, the nation is absolutely calm. Every Pakistani now know that these attacks are a daily routine now, and everybody is also aware of the fact that this time also Mr. Malik will be a huge failure. Despite that we caught a few attackers alive this time, we recognize that fact that we will not be able to see or catch the master minds behind this deadly attack because we know that the in charge of all this is a man whose history only represents a failure.

After Bombay attacks in November, Shivraj Patel, the Home minister at that time resigned while taking the moral responsibility of attack. But, in your case Mr. Malik, we know that morality does not even come anywhere near to you, and you will keep the charge of interior ministry without any feeling of shame. Therefore, I believe, it is useless to ask for your resignation. Only thing, I think, we can ask this time that we have a brilliant opportunity to get to know who is really behind all these acts of violence through the terrorist caught alive. So, Mr. Malik, for God’s sake, do Something and protect us.
