Going to Jail is an old trick for politicians to gain more popularity. But unfortunately, not all get it the same. A country like Pakistan needs to abolish the current hybrid democratic system and adopt one system for the next 20 years.

Arresting our own people, firing on our own people, wow my Pak army! You make me so proud! Really protecting your motherland and your compatriots! Shame on you! We have become occupied Kashmir where state terrorism is rampant! Rot in hell Munir and Bajwa!
