Dear Editor,

A Cry for help on the Break down of Law and Order in Pakistan.

Dear Sir/Ma, my name is Azreel. I am from Pakistan and wish to tell the horrors going on in a Pakistan to a bigger audience through you paper.

Pakistan has always felt the sharp stings of war and its ugliness as a nation.  We currently are in a war with terrorism, killings and kidnappings. The rule of law is not obeyed by the government and civilians do not have the right to freely express themselves.

Recently, i came across a video of young Pakistani school boys of school age, that were receiving trainings on how to kill. This has raised a lot of concern to some of us. Due to the ravages we have expressed due to terrorism ,seeing this video has left an impression that there is no end in sight for all this killings and maiming. We need help.

given the popularity of your paper, i request that you help us tell our story so as to attract the attention of the public to our plight.

Thank you.

Yours Sincerely,

Azreel Mohadini
