 Mr Tanvir i am agree with you but we must take some step ourselves...., main responsible of our deaths are media owners , as you know very well ,how many journalists are insured by owners?  ??
in non conflict media workers are near to death with families due to non payment of  their wages ...? what is this ... i think this is a big terrorism .....?
i pray to our Allah ,, he save us from all kind of terrorism .

It is very sad and unfortunate incident.It has become very difficult to continue work as a journalist in conflict areas of Pakistan.It is not possible for us  to expect any effective response from present government as it will  just release a traditional condolence message and will, as usual , not be able to take any effective action against those who are responsible for this sad incident.May Allah rest the departed soul in eternal peace and give courage to the family and friends of Malik Mumtaz to bear this loss.

A tragic mystery that will probably never be solved like so many similar ghastly incidents before this one….    And yet we proudly believe that the Pakistani media has become "very powerful" and "very daring" in its pursuit of truth.

 

But what "powerful" if we have not even been able to pin down the murderers of scores of our colleagues?  What "daring" if we are helplessly watching brave journalists falling all around us almost every day, and all we can do is utter empty words?

 

The first casualty of war may be truth, but the second casualty of this unfortunate war seems to be the truth-tellers… Everyone seems to have forgotten that under the Geneva Convention, the killing or harming of journalists  in times of conflict is a war crime.   

 

What have the so-called investigative journalists done in this regard so far? What have the human rights activists done? Where are the powerful Media Moguls who have been raking in the money that these gutsy reporters on the ground toil for? Blood money…..

 

Why are we such an easy target? Is it because those of us who are out on the  ground are ill-equipped? Less experienced? Pushed to do more than they can handle? Simply naïve? 

Has the 'enemy', whoever it is,  become so powerful that we are too scared to even look for it?  

 Heaven help us…

 

May Malik Mumtaz enjoy his 'shahadat' in the best of heavens. And may Allah grant courage and peace to his bereaved family.

Very tragic and shocking indeed. Instead of chasing Taliban, our government should throw out the foreigner as well as local agents of Pakistan's most important "ally" in the world, allowed by our foreign national ambassadors to enter the country despite strong opposition by our security agencies.

This is extremely unfortunate. But like previous tragedies involving our fellow journalists, I doubt if the authorities will be pushed to take decisive action against the culprits involved in this case. Its time that our community itself became more united to demand action in cases where journalists are being targeted.

This is very sad and the government is unmoved and silent over killing of journalists.
