Rage and grief
[DAWN] I REMEMBER the day when the attack on the Sri Lankan cricket team happened. I remember watching the live coverage as the events unfolded, and then the channels cut to Raiwind where Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif...Pak dynastic politician, brother of PM Nawaz Sharif, chief minister of Punjab... was getting ready to hold a pre-planned news conference. Everybody waited to see what he had to say about the event which was still unfolding on the streets of Lahore. But when he started to speak, it was all about the judges and the restoration of the judiciary and what a huge crime it would be for the country if we did not right this wrong immediately. His tone was indignant and angry. The channels cut to a split screen, with one window showing him talking about the judges while the other showed the attack under way on the streets of Lahore.
