The President of Pakistan’s pardon, to a ranger’s personnel who publically short dead an unarmed civilian Sarfraz Shah in Karachi, bears huge criticism.
Such an act by president represents the double standards of justice and governance in the country and deems that law is different for civilians and forces personals. The law in the country is already different for weaker and stronger.
If a civilian had short dead to a rangers personnel, would the president has give pardon to a civilian? I think ‘NO’ , rather the civilian would have been executed long ago under civilian or military court orders.
Such a preferential treatment should be stopped immediately because injustice anywhere by anyone has harmful consequence on society. Injustice is the only element that shapes the way societies, civilizations, and territorial boundaries are transformed and redefined sooner or later; take the examples of Bolshevik and American revolutions.
