During the operation dozens of people were killed, including the security forces of Pakistan. Actual figures of casualties did not appear in the newspapers because the print and electronic media were kept away from Lal Masjid and Jamia Hafsa.
We had to rely on government's reports about the casualties. Reports from independent sources were not available. However, I will not go into this controversy that operation against Lal Masjid and Jamia Hafsa was legal or not, but I will not hesitate to say that there was disproportionate use of power by the government against Lal Masjid and Jamia Hafsa. Lal Masjid (Red Mosque) has become red by the blood of the Pakistani Muslims.
