#1 I've seen the video. An armed robber in Quetta who had held up two women in a new park was grabbed by their security, who disarmed him, and then strong armed him out to where some of these paramilitary rangers were standing.

These guys do not have handcuffs, are not police, and have no jails. Then while they are standing around, the robber starts bouncing about, grabbing at rifle barrels, and screaming at them not to shoot him. Finally, someone puts a couple of rounds in him.

Then, while he is lying there, bleeding, and demanding to be taken to the hospital, the rangers go back to what they were talking about. He is later taken to the hospital, where he bleeds to death.

The bottom line is that the purpose of the rangers is to maintain security in "war zones" that are under martial law. As such, I am not surprised that they would cap an armed robber on the spot.

Unfortunately, a Rooters cameraman was there, took video, and then a Rooters correspondent had hysterics. He later hunted up the armed robbers family, told them he had been killed by Rangers, and videoed their shrieking hysterics that he was "innocent", and a "good boy", and just general shrieking.
