"She is one naughty lady."
"Hey stop that, however naughty it does not justify murder."
"If you think I am talking about Qandeel Baloch then you are wrong. And yes I agree with you however naughty, and you can define naughty however you choose, it does not justify murder and I hope the state will go ahead and prosecute the murderer...speaking of murderers what happened to Shahrukh Jatoi? I heard that the family of the slain Shahzeb, son of a DSP, pardoned the wealthy Jatoi but then I have heard no news....surely a murderer who gives a victory sign after being convicted needs to be made an example. He could murder again you know and even if the family of the murdered man has pardoned him in return for blood money the state should not."
"The state of Sindh is kinda busy with Dr Asim Hussain's JIT report and its fallout so am not sure whether it has time to take Shahrukh Jatoi to task..."
"The last news item on him dates back to March 2015 so could someone let us know where the guy is at present - in jail or out?"
"As I said the Sindh police and government is kinda busy in litigations, counter litigations, arrests and need I add the powers of the rangers..."
"Don't be facetious anyway when I said she was naughty I didn't mean Qandeel Baloch.
Do you want to guess who I meant?"
"I can't think of anyone off the top of my head. I mean it's not as if there are no other naughty people in this country, and need I add Mian sahib has an entire list of such people, then there is the First Daughter's list, Zardari sahib has his own list and the Khan's list is perhaps the longest these days and..."
"I was referring to Sherry Rehman."
"Hey back off, will you, she is a serious political player, a bright intelligent woman who has transformed herself from being labelled a witch by her party leader to a very senior position in the party and..."
"Did you see her sitting next to Maulana Die...ooops, sorry, Maulana Fazlur Rehman during a seminar organised by All Parties Hurriyet Conference? The Maulana looks so angry, as if his eyes are going to pop out sitting next to a woman who is not a mehram by any stretch of the imagination...."
"Mehram as in a member of the family that is not allowed to be near the Maulana without purdah and..."
"You are enjoying this aren't you? Let me tell you that his religious sensibilities were seriously challenged and could the organisers of the event....."
"Ha ha ha and that my friend is the politics of our religious parties - politics that require conforming to the law of the land by our religious parties however irksome..."
