AAJ TV is blowing this story which is totally unnecessary. There is no reason given as why this might have happened. There is nothing “news worthy” in todays news out of Pakistan and AAJ TV is using this story to feed their wires.
In a country where tens of innocent people r dying without reason, this is just a tip on the Walls Cornetto…….
@ Admin.
Can you please also add one more topic … PMLN and PMLQ forward to work together.

Thanks.
Blame it on the crook Rehman Malik and Salman Taseer the crook no 2 and the biggest crook Zardari. They wanted the media to blame Nawaz Sharif since it happened within the punjab’s jurisdiction. It back fired.
Bad planning idiots.
i think its an inside job. …har-army house of kali mata.
MQM is taking advantage of the situation. Zardari is a crook, but not crooked enough to deal with MQM. As a matter of fact no party including Jamaat’s intelligence wing can predict their hideous agenda.
Solution is, direct and merciless military action against them. Hang the mafia leaders and their cohorts, if you want Pakistan a place to live.
I’m surprised it took _this_ long!
@Imtiaz: Are you implying this is MQM’s doing? Anything to back it up or just hawai firing on ur part?
MQM would target Talat Hussain but wouldn’t do it in Rawalpindi. They cannot operate in Punjab so openly moreover their planning is very strong,they wouldn’t get caught like this. Yeh kaam kuchay dimagh ne kiya hai and MQM is not kucha.
I hope whoever is behind it must be punished.
but do note the arrested chap….he is calm, collected…very composed.
aoa
this is a warning from ppp/establishment to media to stay within limits
@ Imtiaz
well, I’ll also say that don’t jump the gun, I’m not the fan of MQM, in fact a big critic but still wait for the offical statement.
They mentioned about a political party, and the incidence occured in Rawalpindi, so from where MQM came there any way don’t under-estimate that doggy Rehman Malik.
I won’t be surprised if PPP which according to Rehman Malik is ‘establishment’ now behind it, especially it could be a response to Talalt Hussain tune, and their permanent logo ‘ Free Judiciary, When’.
I read somewhere MQM is seriously thinking not potray theirself Anti-Lawyer and Iftikhar Choudary ANYMORE bcoz of their lame duck dad Musharraf allegedly.
no…though i did say the faujistania is behind this…i am inclined to revise my opinion..
pak-nukes has a point…it didn’t seem too prof. an effort. and a low value target.
perhaps it was a contract job on behalf of……..???
PPP? Trying to make Larkana out of Rawalpindi/Islamabad.
aoa
this has rehman malik and co written all over it, just read on geo news that the Constitutional package enters completion phase. they probably did this so the package does not get negative views from media.
or…OR…it could be part 1 of a chess move. part II being a revelation (fabricated) somehow implicating AAJ T V or harming its credibility??
it doesn’t make sense…the way it stands.
It is very disturbing news and should be given courage. Terrorizing
media with firing must be condemned in the strongest possible terms.
All involved must be brought to justice and should be punished to the fullest extent of law if found guilty.

Waqas
I think though we cant blame MQM without any proof yet why not think in this way that MQM has done it because in Karachi they would have been accused first but in Pindi they have made us to think (for a while) that MQM may not be behind it (tactical move).
Secondly as the guy reporting said that a political party is behind it so what other party it could be? I cant thinkone.
Ayaz
Its time to give hand in hand with MEDIA representative like Talat Hussian and his Ilks who always speaks truths to the power and denial to be servants of the power like Zardari and his circle who have lust for power………..
We on the behalf of Karakorum National Movement (KNM) and Karakorum Students Organization (KSO) strongly condemn cowardly attacks on media and civil society stakeholders.
Farhat Baig
Karakorum
Gigit.
Please let not jump the guns. Whoever is claiming this to be a act by PPP or establishment or MQM is not doing any sincere job for Pakistan. This is our national mentality that we always like to “talk” more and “act” less….
BTW I do agree that MQM ghundas usually are more concrete in their planning plus I totally object the idea of naming them without any evidence. If you look at the guy who was caught, he looks like a “kachi umar” as mentioned by some 1.
very sad…Aaj Tv is truth TV ..very sad incident and which “strong political group ” is behind this? as mentioned by reporter..
has zaradri learned something from MQM? may be altaf gave him some tips that threat media and use violence to stop truth..if anyone from Aaj Tv is reading this..for God Sake please tell the names of this strong political group…some of the media like Geo Tv always hide crime of MQM and it was Aaj TV who exposed 12th may mascare from MQM..so please aaj tell us the name of that political group and to whom this group belongs to..to Mush Doggie or to Zardari Daku? but if zaradri/Mush try to follow MQM in punjab, they will fail miserabaly..people of punjab will not tolerate any badmashi from political dakus…
and second to Talat Hussain please please do something for your security as you are exposing these PPP/Mush Gundas and this mafia is very dangerous so please do something for your personal security…
God Bless talat hussain
God Bless Aaj TV

Great!! the person has been arrested and identified (See Aaj report!)…..yet some people here are saying Zardari is involved….Don’t know if it reflects on Zardari or their mental state…..
I wonder when our establishment will learn to respect law and free speech. Aaj TV News is the best among Geo, Ary!
Hail to Aaj TV!
Our journalists should grow a spine and stop acting like idiots. These kind of incidents happen all the time in Pakistan, probably some robbery attempt or something.
If the establishment really wanted send a message to media then there are much better ways like showing up at Talat Husseins house or at the office.
Some critical analysis please.
Mush did it. He sent two individuals from the intelligence agencies and told them to go shoot at TV vans. As reported in the news, Mush has nothing better to do these days and is found playing mostly bridge with his friends or enjoying the new Nitendo Wii that he got from his grandsons. This is the most intense mission he has commanded since Lal Masjid..
NJ and MM said that it was same place where PMLN were attacked few weeks ago. Talat also some political links (without saying their names) of gang who did it, not only that he said that Police were not ready to file and FIR. Aaj also reported that common people standing there arrested the culprit not the police.
@Riddle 792
You have made an astonishing statement that AAJ TV is blowing this” OUT OF PROPORTION ”
Pre-planned shooting at a National TV Newsmedia Van at a Traffic signal is out of “PROPORTION”. Do YOU know what is the meaning of the word PROPORTION!
What credibility do YOU have to make a statement like that.
Please expalin for the benefit of the readers of this web site
this guy is caught firing on AJJ tv van and he seems so well connected that he is shown in Ajj’s news clip sitting comfortably in police’s tent and using his mobiles and calling his ‘influential contacts’ who must have ordered him to hit Ajj tv..
@Riddle 792
I was really shocked to hear a statement like this. for MQM or a mafia supporter, this could be ‘blowing out of proportion’ but for any other party, this ought to be a defined as a big big incident. A mafia who has got the guts to demonstrate its strength IN FRONT of the media is not ‘blowing out of proportion’.
It is very obvious that no casualtie was meant in this Attack.
Otherwise maybe one could have been left unharmed but all three of them Totally Unscathed -NEH!!!! but ye do not know.
Its virtually Impossible.
AAJ Tv certainly led by the one of the greatest personality Talat Hussain are undoubtedly going to use it to create a media Hype. But hearing the description given by the News Reporter it is certainly indigestible.
The guy was totally relaxed and ||| this is an unbelievable level of coziness possible - in Police custody after a “failed” attempt to murder three individuals!!!!
2 ran away 1 caught W.T.F
AND this is just my feeling >>>”He really doesnot look like a killer to ME.”
((I may be wrong in this assumption though))
aoa
what does a killed look like?
HAH what does a killed look like.
RED Blood spilling out of mouth.
Throw some1 off a building to understand what a killed person looks like!!
@ Pessimist this guy is caught red handed after firing on the van and you are accusing Ajj tv of creating a hype?
PPP has joined hands with Musharraf Kutta , so oppression of free media will continue.
Looks like the dark night is continueing for Pak people. May Allah save our country from Traitors like Musharraf and Zardari.
Just note that Zardari is sitting with American ambassador Annie peterson almost every second day.
@Ahmed
Well Im not saying AAJ is involved, but The only thing I can understand is that no casualties were meant in this attack.
I may have been to send a message )) PROBABLY A “MASSONIC CODE”
Supporter: what a riot! haha… so he’ s playing Nintendo is he? What a man…. how great a travesty and shame it will be if the main parties have a fallout to the extent that this hideous creature emerges again…for another ten years. God help this nation. Nintendo’s latest game is called ” Episode 58.2.b — the Revenge of the Warlord Muchruffian”
I think the following picture is MORE IMPORTANT than the one we are discussing above. I do not favor the above incident BUT this is what media should be talking. This is hypocracy, listen to the woman who called into Bolta Pakistan today and talked about her own feelings regarding the Karachi Robber Burning Issue.

Please visit this site and see how modern we are.
They mention their ‘names’ in the report. If you know RWP/IBD you can easily guess who they are ‘politcal, land mafia and operating in both RWP/IBD’. May be you can understand.
perhaps it is not inappropriate to look at the World Peace Ranking….
Paksitan is ranked,,,well you search for it..

The story appears to be completely fabricated and we have to wait and see what is the motive behind it. No one was injured when Aaj crew was attacked and the so called the “shooter ” so comfortably handed over his arms and presented himself for arrest. May be again it was a conspiracy by President Musharaf and muslim league Q…. Aaj TV can do a better job in producing a scenario like this, at least make it look real.
