"Sahil, the five-year-old British boy, has been recovered."
"Recovered or left outside a village school by the kidnappers who had the decency to let the police know where they were leaving him?"
"It's not clear."
"Was a ransom paid or not?"
"It's not clear."
"Was the family complicit or not?"
"Rehman Malik said yes first and then the police said no absolutely not."
"Was the child harmed?"
"No and that's the only thing everyone is agreed on."
"The kidnappers - were they locals or did they have international connections?"
"Punjab Law Minister says they had international connections, the police is quiet about that angle."
"If the kidnappers had international connections then my question is: why did they kidnap a child whose parents were not super rich? God knows in this country there are many children whose parents..."
"Don't do a Shahbaz Sharif on yourself!"
"Whatever do you mean?"
"Are you trying to encourage these kidnappers, international or local, to kidnap the children of the rich?"
"I see where you are going with this but all I am saying is that international kidnappers ought to have been more aware of the finances of Sahil's parents."
"Maybe they focused on a soft target - see that to me shows these international kidnappers are headquartered in Pakistan - where the element of incompetence and greed is pervasive."
"Don't be facetious."
"Anyway I am glad the child has been found."
"And I pray that all other kidnapped children in this country who failed to make headlines would also be freed by the police with as much commitment..."
"Malik said that the case tarnished the image of the country!"
"Malik's statements and his own meteoric rise have tarnished the image of this country."
"Rise as in politics or rise as in wealth?"
"Both."
