Twitter is up in arms as ATC acquits all accused in Sahiwal massacre
Twitter is up in arms after an Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) acquitted all six accused involved in the Sahiwal massacre, in which four members of a family were mercilessly killed by the Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD).
Taking to Twitter, netizens claimed that the CTD had been instrumental in pressurizing the family since the trial began. Here’s what people on Twitter had to say…
#SahiwalMassacre:
Federation should file an appeal against this decision. #SupremeCourt should investigate the circumstances under which eyewitnesses resiled from their statements. @ImranKhanPTI should review the entire #judicial system & start reforming it. pic.twitter.com/qXMil1Oktu— Abid Qaiyum Suleri (@Abidsuleri) October 25, 2019
Below is PM @ImranKhanPTI promise to the Nation re #SahiwalMassacre. Instead ATC's judgement was a blatant #MurderOfJustice. Despite unmistakable evidence of daylight murder of innocent citizens, accused was set free.If PM tweeted with conviction he must ensure justice is done https://t.co/I9R28cXNuN

This concept of “Diyat “ should not hold applicable when it is a crime against the state or humanity. It is not just a one on one crime. These people are a threat to other civilians. #SahiwalMassacre

4 beings were brutally shot in the middle of the road in broad daylight yet the court acquits the criminals cuz those killed were impoverished
Possibly, but this system is mentally poor & handicapped!
If these kids grow up to be anti-Pak, I wouldn't blame them.#SahiwalMassacre pic.twitter.com/MlBHXinQJy— Ayesha Siddiqua (@AyeshaAgenda) October 24, 2019
A small heads-up guys. In case you are in/ travelling to #Pakistan, just be ready to get shot and killed in front of your kids, with the killers going scot-free. All in a day's work folks…
Shame on you @ImranKhanPTI, we expected better from you!!!#SahiwalMassacre— Shah Faisal (@shah_faisal_75) October 25, 2019
